Three newÌýÀ¶Ý®ÊÓƵ Engineering undergraduates are starting their studies with financial backing from a local scholarship program for Black students.

Tahjeira Cameron, Carlton Darby and Dagmawit Worku are among 10 recipients of awards of $1,000 to $1,500 from the À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ Region chapter of the Congress of Black Women and the Caribbean Canadian Association of À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ Region.

Today we acknowledge the passing of 2^ndÌýyear Nanotechnology Engineering student Jaya Gupta and offer our deepest sympathies to her family, friends and peers.

Jaya was such an inspiration as she faced her very personal battle with cancer with both strength and courage. She shared with many that being a À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ engineering student was the absolute proudest accomplishment of her life and being a graduate of the program was a key achievement for her.

A professor at À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ Engineering has been honoured by an international organization forÌýEarth and space scientists.

Digital X-ray technology developed by a À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ Engineering spinoff company has won approval from Health Canada.

A medical device licence issued for Reveal 35C, a dual-energy X-ray detector created by , follows clearance from the Food and Drug Administration in the United States earlier this month.

À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ Engineering researchers behind an open-source project to detect COVID-19 using chest X-rays and artificial intelligence (AI) announced a significant advancement this week.

In addition to detecting the disease, researchers said their technology is now capable of determining its severity.

Researchers are using AI and chest X-rays to determine COVID-19 severity.

Researchers from À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ Engineering played prominent roles at a recent virtual symposium staged by the Region of À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ.

A team of faculty members, graduate students and postdoctoral fellows led by Nadine Ibrahim, a civil and environmental engineering lecturer, contributed two white papers exploring the implications of COVID-19 on the region’s official planning process.

The papers covered considerations involving water, wastewater, stormwater, asset management and roads.

À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ Engineering alumni company has secured an additional US $5 million to fuel global growth of Otto Motors, its industrial division.

The investment boosts the total of its latest round of financial backing to US $34 million following the announcement in June of US $29 million.

Researchers at À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ Engineering have developedÌýa palm-sized device to monitor glucose levels in people with diabetes using radar and artificial intelligence (AI), not painful finger pricks to draw blood.

The new technology is safe, fast and accurate, and works by sending radio waves through the skin and into blood vessels when users place the tip of their finger on a touchpad.

The much-anticipated REEM-C recently arrived on campus and has already started an extensive training program.

The humanoid robot isÌýdescribed as the slightly smaller and lighter brother of TALOS, the full-size black and purple robot that was welcomed with great fanfare at Engineering 7 almost two years ago.
