��ݮ��Ƶ Engineering made a big move in released by global education analyst Quacquarelli Symonds (QS).

The faculty was rated 37^th in the broad category of engineering and technology, up from 49^th spot last year, based on academic reputation, employer reputation, research citations and research impact in a field of more than 1,500 universities.

A new professor at ��ݮ��Ƶ Engineering is using biology to produce a green ingredient that is in demand in the cosmetics and personal care industry.

Dr. Christian Euler, a chemical engineering professor, is co-founder of a company that makes the first bio-based glycolic acid from carbon dioxide using a fermentation process. Traditionally,  glycolic acid is made from a byproduct of refining oil.

Five graduates of ��ݮ��Ƶ Engineering are featured on an annual list published by Macleans magazine of the top 100 people shaping Canada.

includes the brains behind a local robotics startup, as well as alumni in the fields of architecture, artificial intelligence (AI) and healthcare.

The release of ChatGPT, a conversational artificial intelligence (AI) created by OpenAI, has refreshed debates on the ethical creation and use of new technologies.

Dr. Alexander Wong, a systems design engineering professor and Canada Research Chair in Artificial Intelligence and Medical Imaging at the University of ��ݮ��Ƶ, describes the tech as a “very big engineering achievement that needs to mature.”

The next big breakthrough in Canadian technology could be among the engineering student projects on display at the annual Capstone Design symposia running until March 30 at the University of ��ݮ��Ƶ.

Final-year engineering students will showcase their range of projects including a performance-enhanced lithium battery for colder climates (Nanotechnology Engineering – March 17) and a proposed design for a green long-haul freight corridor along Highway 401 (Environmental Engineering – March 23).

A contingent of University of ��ݮ��Ƶ students representing three design teams had a strong showing at an artificial intelligence (AI) conference in Kingston this week.

Nineteen students from WAT.ai, and attended the at Queen’s University along with groups from across the country.

A third-year undergraduate student has been selected as the Co-op Student of the Year for the Faculty of Engineering in 2022.

Jennifer Tsai, who is studying biomedical engineering, has received this award in recognition of her work at the University of British Columbia's Cembrowski Lab, where she investigated the anterior thalamic nuclei (ATN), a region of the brain critical to short-term memory. 

Six University of ��ݮ��Ƶ academics - all women - are helping The ��ݮ��Ƶ Institute for Sustainable Aeronautics (WISA) address the challenges facing Canada's aviation sector. 

Part of this team is Dr. Mihaela Vlasea, an associate professor of mechanical and mechatronics engineering. Her expertise in metal additive manufacturing — popularly known as 3D printing — could be key to building better plans for a better aviation sector. 

��ݮ��Ƶ Engineering's Conrad School of Entrepreneurship and Business will launch Canada’s first PhD program for emerging entrepreneurs this fall.

Conrad School's PhD program in entrepreneurship and organization will offer emerging entrepreneurship researchers the opportunity to rigorously study human behaviour and organization with a focus on entrepreneurial contexts. The program's core focus on management and organizations is unlike any other traditional business school doctoral programs offered by Canadian universities. 

The unemployment-to-job vacancy ratio is at a historic low across Canada, partly because baby boomers who are close to retirement age have left the workforce and not enough younger people are coming in behind them.

Dr. Nada Basir, a professor at the Conrad School of Entrepreneurship and Business, says there is an aspect to this conundrum that is rarely talked about: providing opportunities for women, particularly immigrant and racialized women, to get jobs or create new businesses amid this changing economy.
