The Forum is a Canadian national charity dedicated to empowering self-identifying women, non-binary, and trans-femme entrepreneurs by addressing gender-based inequities in the entrepreneurial landscape. Through its innovative programming, strategic partnerships, and commitment to intersectional approaches, The Forum provides comprehensive support to women entrepreneurs. This research project asks: How can entrepreneurial support organizations like The Forum […]

Two IoUT localization and telemetry sensors with RF antennas and power amplifiers at 915 MHz are achieved. The two sensors were measured in the research laboratory showing a reasonable agreement with the simulation results. However, the two sensors were not measured onsite yet. Therefore, the performance of the two IoUT localization and telemetry sensors is […]

The project entails exploring the use of Machine Learning (ML) techniques to assist in the training of air traffic controllers. The core goal is to train models that help predict if an instruction given by an air traffic controller may put an aircraft at risk of colliding with another aircraft during landing procedures.

This project will develop accessible wayfinding practices for an interdisciplinary art exhibition. The project combines research-creation and auto-ethnographic methodologies to explore and develop accessibility practices within the Canadian arts sector. The intern will work with partner organization Mass Culture to adapt and revise “Access in Counterpoint,” an accessibility framework intended for a broad interdisciplinary arts […]

The project concentrates on MEMS (Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems) fabrication process optimization. MEMS devices comprise suspended structures, such as cantilevers, gyros, membranes, etc., which are created by removing sacrificial material around them in order to have these structures released to perform their designated function. Currently, these structures are being released with the use of either dry etch […]

This project involves conducting a literature review of research and popular publications on transformative justice—an approach that aims to develop responses to violence by understanding the structures of inequality outside of the current pathways of criminalization and punishment—with the aim of developing applied tools, resources, and guidelines for distribution as open access resources in both […]

Le projet cherche à étudier comment les projets de dynamisation des cœurs de collectivités (centre-ville, noyau villageois, cœur de quartier) peuvent favoriser l’inclusion et l’équité dans les cœurs de collectivités et engendrer des retombées positives pour l’ensemble de chaque milieu. Plus particulièrement, il vise à identifier les stratégies à intégrer dans les projets de (re)dynamisation […]

The main objective of the project by both interns (with tasks defined for each in the timelines) is aimed at the field of building sustainable water resiliency, adaptation and management with the following specific sub-objectives: • To evaluate monitoring technologies of eutrophication on water reservoirs. • To evaluate technologies for prevention and remediation of eutrophication […]

This project focuses on preparing photoelectrodes by designing molecular dye sensitizers, nanostructured substrates, integrating them and finally characterizing the photoelectrochemical properties of the photoelectrode under low-light conditions. By developing and optimizing the design of the photoelectrode, the project aims to enhance solar to chemical energy conversion processes for green fuel or high-added value products. The […]

The proposed project, “Advanced Nanomaterials for Photocatalytic PFAS Removal in Wastewater”, is a collaborative initiative between Canada and Vietnam aiming at tackling PFAS contamination in water. PFAS, which are toxic chemicals found in industrial effluents, firefighting foams, and consumer products, are persistent in the environment and pose significant health risks. The project will develop advanced […]

This project focuses on creating titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles using the sol-gel method, studying their properties, and using them to break down doxycycline, an antibiotic, in water. It addresses water pollution, a key issue in Canada, by developing affordable and effective ways to remove harmful pharmaceutical pollutants. TiO2 is a powerful material for cleaning water, […]

The Occupant-Centric Low-Energy Design Solutions for High-Rise Social Apartments in Ho Chi Minh City project seeks to improve energy efficiency in high-rise apartments by understanding and integrating the daily behaviors and preferences of residents. The objectives of the research include: – Develop a set of criteria for evaluating energy efficiency that aligns with user behavior […]
