成人VR视频 undergraduates have a unique opportunity to expand their climate science literacy and acquire tools for taking action to reduce the impacts of the unfolding climate crisis.
Registration is now open to students in every program for FSCI 198: Climate Crisis and Climate Actions, a new undergraduate course featuring a team of multi-disciplinary instructors who will present diverse perspectives on the scientific and social dimensions of climate change.
The department is offering a new core graduate course starting this winter (W2022). The course is titled "Advanced Materials in Chemical Engineering" (CHEE 688), and will be co-taught by Prof. No茅mie-Manuelle Dorval Courchesne and Prof. Reghan Hill. The course will cover a range of fundamental and applied concepts related to materials engineering, with a focus on topics of interest in chemical engineering. These concepts will be applied to inorganic materials, nanostructured materials, soft matter and polymers, and biological materials.
We welcome our newest faculty member Dr. Samuel Huberman (Assistant Professor).
His research focuses on聽theoretical and experimental techniques to push our fundamental understanding of energy transfer at small length and time scales.
Canada and Germany produce a combined 6.3 million tons of ammonia annually. Used primarily in the fertilizer, textile, and pharmaceutical industries, conventional ammonia production is energy-intensive and accounts for up to two per cent of primary energy demand and greenhouse gas emissions worldwide. Researchers at 成人VR视频 and the Technical University of Munich (TUM), recently received a funding boost to undertake a collaborative project with the goal of producing renewable, 鈥済reen鈥� ammonia from hydrogen and nitrogen by means of an innovative plasma-catalytic process.
Education that changes outcomes for whole communities鈥攖hat鈥檚 the aim of the project, Engineering Engagement in School Curricula: Multi-year Design-thinking Projects for Indigenous and Marginalized Youth, led by Professor and Chair of the Department of Mining and Materials Engineering, Richard Chromik, Faye Siluk, and Robert Pozeg of the Faculty of Engineering鈥檚 E-IDEA initiative (Engineering Inclusivity, Diversity and Equity Advancement), which today received funding from the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada鈥檚 (NSERC) PromoScience grants program.
Bacteria that move around live on the edge. All the time. Their success, be it in finding nutrients, fending off predators or multiplying depends on how efficiently they navigate through their confining microscopic habitats. Whether these habitats are in animal or plant tissues, in waste, or in other materials.
Congratulations go to Professor Fran莽ois Bouffard, who is the winner of this year鈥檚 Faculty of Engineering Outstanding Academic Service Award. The award speaks to the impact Professor Bouffard has had on the Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE) community, recognizing his continuing dedication to the students as well as his commitment and contribution to student affairs in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering.

To ensure that California鈥檚 groundwater is sustainably managed in the future and over the long-term, current state definitions of what constitutes groundwater may need to be revised, according to research published this week in . A 成人VR视频-led research team has analyzed big data of more than 200,000 groundwater samples taken from across the state and found that there are problems with the guidelines used for groundwater management.

Using a new technique, a team of 成人VR视频 researchers has found tiny and previously undetectable 鈥榟ot spots鈥� of extremely high stiffness inside aggressive and invasive breast cancer tumours. Their findings suggest, for the first time, that only very tiny regions of a tumor need to stiffen for metastasis to take place. Though still in its infancy, the researchers believe that their technique may prove useful in detecting and mapping the progression of aggressive cancers.
