Orianna Min is an enthusiastic advocate of a unique program at the University of À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ that allows students to build businesses during their co-op work terms.

Now in the final year of the mechanical engineering program, Min took advantage of the Enterprise Co-op Program (E Co-op) to launch a medical technology startup with fellow engineering student Daniel Hu.

, Canada’s largest hackathon and one of the largest collegiate hackathons in the world, is back live and in-person at the University of À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ this weekend.

Friday through Sunday, over 1,000 students from around the world will converge on campus for 36 intense hours of building innovative software applications and hardware projects.

A research team from À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ Engineering is working with doctors at a local hospital to improve the diagnosis of back problems using artificial intelligence (AI).

Led by John McPhee, a professor of systems design engineering, the researchers developed a deep-learning AI method to locate anatomical landmarks in X-rays in a novel approach to virtual triaging.

Aiping Yu, a chemical engineering professor at À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ, has been awarded the Rutherford Medal in Chemistry by the Royal Society of Canada (RSC).

Yu is one of 19 Canadian award recipients honoured by the RSC for their outstanding achievements in advancing knowledge and understanding of the past and present.

Alexander Wong, a systems design engineering professor at À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ, has been elected as a new fellow of the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET).

Wong is one of 16 new fellows from around the world elected by their IET peers for their sustained career achievement, leadership and professionalism in engineering and technology disciplines.

One of the newest Schulich Leaders at À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ Engineering is already making a splash in science communications.

Jonathan Zhou, a first-year mechatronics engineering student, was recently selected as one of 30 semi-finalists for the 2022 Breakthrough Junior Challenge, sponsored by Khan Academy. The semi-finalists were selected out of a pool of more than 1,000 applicants.

Five incoming students at À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ Engineering are starting their studies with $100,000 in backing from a prestigious scholarship program.

Subha Azrin and Krishna Patel of computer engineering, Norman Chen and Michael Xu of software engineering, and Jonathan Zhou of mechatronics engineering are among 10 campus-wide  winners at the University of À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ.

A startup company founded by a À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ Engineering professor and two of his graduate students has won US $250,000 to expand and commercialize green technology for the packaging industry.

 was launched on Earth Day in 2021 by Kevin Musselman, a professor of mechanical and mechatronics engineering, and Chee Hau Teoh (MASc ’20) and Jhi Yong Loke (MASc ’21), who earned master’s degrees while developing the technology in his lab.

The University of À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ will celebrate the life and legacy of President Emeritus Douglas Tyndall Wright with a special event on September 23.

Wright, who served as the first dean of the Faculty of Engineering from 1958 to 1966 and as À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ’s third president and vice-chancellor from 1981 to 1993, passed away on May 21, 2020.

A project inspired by a co-op work term on a construction crew has put a À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ Engineering student in the running for an international invention prize.

Adrian Simone, who is in his fourth year of the civil engineering program, was announced today as a national runner-up in the 2022 James Dyson Award competition for a proposal to make bricks using bacteria.
