The Class of 3T5 has been awarding outstanding students with the Second Mile Award since 1945. The award is presented to a student in final year […]
Join us this month as Professor Alex Mihailidis discusses technology and aging. There has been significant research completed on the development of technologies to support the wellness of older adults. However, the majority of these devices have not made it to market and suffer from various limitations that make them inappropriate for an older adult […]
Advances in data and smart technology have allowed in recent years for leaps forward in safety and security. Data analysis has provided insights into how we move through the world and ways it can be made safer. Technology has enhanced these insights to bring security and surveillance to new heights of innovation. With these advances […]
Join us this month as Professor Erin Bobicki discusses new innovations in sustainability. The depletion of high-grade ores, rising production costs, climate change, the increasing scarcity of fresh water, and the need for a social license to operate all necessitate the development of efficient and sustainable mineral processing technologies. The application of microwaves in mineral […]
