We are thrilled to announce that Professor Thomas Uchida has been awarded $250,000 in funding from the New Frontiers in Research Fund for his research on Vibrotactile Stimulation for Treatment of Parkinson's Disease: Mathematical Modelling and Experimental Validation.

Trained as an aerospace engineer, Professor Catherine Mavriplis has first-hand experience being one of few women in a male-dominated field. This fuelled her passion for equity, diversity and inclusion (EDI), leading to a dual-research career studying aerospace engineering as well as the systematic gaps that impede gender diversity in STEM and developing ways to address these gaps.

In the male-dominated realms of motorsports and engineering, two young women at the Faculty of Engineering are defying gender norms and accelerating towards success. Meet Nora Jordan and Marie-Soleil Labelle, two 91��Ʒ���ϳԹ� engineering students who are making their mark as young women in competitive motorsports and inspiring the next generation of female engineers to follow their passion for speed an...

Three 91��Ʒ���ϳԹ� Faculty of Engineering research projects have received JELF program funding. The projects seek to mitigate the environmental impact of the construction industry, make exercise more accessible for people with low mobility, and quickly detect pathogens in food.

Professor Roland Bouffanais fosters cross-disciplinary exploration of complex systems to understand and predict how they affect humanity.

Charles Blouin (BASc 2013, MASc 2016) and Dominic Robillard (BASc 2011), who cofounded Tyto Robotics, have won the Outaouais’ regional innovation prize from Quebec’s order of professional engineers. The Ordres des ingénieurs du Québec awards this prize to Quebec companies that innovate and contribute to improving quality of life.

We are delighted to announce that Professor Catherine Mavriplis has been awarded the 2022 Educator’s Award for Collegiate Programs by the Women in Engineering ProActive Network (WEPAN).

Of all the energy consumed in the world, over 50% of it is wasted as heat in the surrounding environment, with less than 0.5% of this heat being converted back into electrical power.
