This project aims to tackle the challenge of finding different ways Viva could optimize its existing work processes to generate maximum results, as well as innovating in the human resources & operations domain. This requires the intern to observe technical insights such as user interaction and behavior, as well as traffic across various virtual platforms. […]

Arsenic (As) contamination in rice paddies is a fundamental problem that can reduce crop yield, affect human health, and compromise food security. Moreover, rice paddies emit 30% of the methane produced by the agricultural sector. Aerating water during the growing season can mitigate As toxicity and uptake by rice, and reduce methane emissions; however, current […]

How do warming temperatures affect local ski resorts and what can be expected for the future of alpine skiing in British Columbia? This study aims to determine how important natural snow and weather conditions are for customers at ski resorts in British Columbia and what this means under future snow conditions. By analyzing natural conditions, […]

Electronic waste is one of the largest intensifying waste streams in the world. Although some traditional disposal methods are available to process electronic waste, these methods have several disadvantages from both the economic and environmental perspective. Some processes create challenging gases that require expensive clean-up, while others use harmful and toxic solvents which create air, […]

The proposed project is to develop a comprehensive tool for mathematical modeling of the hydraulics and biochemical conversions in the sewer network. This tool will be used for the optimization of the control strategy of the chemicals dosing in sewer networks to efficiently and economically mitigate the harmful emissions, such as hydrogen sulfide and greenhouse […]

Sewage collection systems have long been considered as sanitation and hydraulic infrastructure, i.e., a medium for transporting wastewater to the treatment facility. Therefore, the management focus has been mostly on hydraulic performance and the prevention of particle settling/odor development in pipes. Current research extends beyond sewage conveyance into sites of chemical and biological transformation with […]

The present research will focus on re-developing and evaluating an inclusive, and accessible gender-neutral program entitled “BodySense”, in collaboration with the Canadian Centre for Ethics in Sport (CCES), aimed at increasing awareness of body image concerns in sport and aiding athletes and key influencers (i.e., parents, coaches, sport organizations) in cultivating a more inclusive, equitable […]

Over the past 30 years, there has been no statistical change in the gap between the unemployment rates of African Nova Scotians and the provincial average. Despite multiple interventions and a wide range of educational and employment supports, African Nova Scotian (ANS) unemployment rates continue to be disproportionately higher than the provincial average. In early […]
