Mary Wells, Dean of Engineering dropped by the IdeasClinic to engage with first-year chemical engineering students.
, a chemical engineering alumnus always knew he wanted to work toward creating sustainable energy, but he never dreamed it would be in the field of nuclear energy.
With deep sadness, the Department of Chemical Engineering mourns the passing of our colleague and friend Dr. Raymond Legge, Distinguished Professor Emeritus on Saturday, April 15, 2023, at the age of 68.
Loved by everyone who met him, Ray’s untimely departure leaves a void that seems impossible to fill.
A new smart material developed by Professor Milad Kamkar and his research group is activated by both heat and electricity, making it the first ever to respond to two different stimuli.
Recently people who frequent the halls of Engineering 6 may have noticed many unique art pieces on display. These works elicit a variety of reactions.
Congratulations to our graduating class of 2023! Their perseverance, dedication and hard work were celebrated at a Grad Toast held in their honour in the Student Design Center.
It’s the most wonderful time of the year! Fourth-year students leverage their creativity and technical skills to advance new ideas and novel technologies in their Capstone Design Projects.
International Women's Day has been observed in some ways since 1908 when the international suffragette movement began the fight to gain the right for women to vote. In 1975 the day was officially recognized for the first time by the United Nations and celebrated widely.
With the addition of new faculty, Professors Yilan Liu, Elisabeth Prince, and Christian Euler, to an already established group, the Department of Chemical Engineering now has the largest number of metabolic engineers in Canada. This is significant because when people think about our dependency on fossil fuels, we think about energy, not realizing that our dependency goes much deeper than that.
A tiny robot that could one day help doctors perform surgery was inspired by the incredible gripping ability of geckos and the efficient locomotion of inchworms.
The new technology, developed by Chemical Engineers at the University of À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ, utilizes ultraviolet (UV) light and magnetic force to move a long, thin robot on any surface, even up walls and across ceilings.
