In the summer of 2018, nine WISc students – the majority of whom had just completed first-year – received funding from Canada’s Mining Industry Human Resource (MiHR) Council. Congratulations! This funding allowed them to work in a research lab that collaborated with many Canadian industry partners. The students solved real-world, interdisciplinary problems for the partners.
Shayna, Carmen, and Jenna (pictured right , presented their work at the 2018 Educating for the Future: Learning Outcomes and Experiential Learning Symposium , organized by the Ontario Universities Council on Quality Assurance, to showcase the MiHR funding program.
WISc Guest Speaker: Gordon McBean
Gordon McBean delivered an outstanding lecture on climate change and science policy to 3002A students in the Fall of 2018. Gordon is a world-renowned climatologist; a past president of the International Council for Science; a Member of the Order of Canada; and a long-standing contributor to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, which was the shared recipient of the 2007 Nobel Peace Prize.
