Christina Ure is completing her Master of Applied Science in Environmental Engineering.
With a foundation in environmental engineering, Christina Ure knows the future is hers to build.
That’s because her degree from the University of Windsor makes her adept in the valuable art of solving problems.
“As an environmental engineer, we do a lot of problem-solving work for some of the world’s biggest issues,” Ure said.
“That gives us a really good base for other fields – whether that’s business, law or medicine.”

UWindsor environmental advocate Paul Henshaw and Josh Psavka, president of the University of Windsor Cyclists Association, celebrate the installation of a Fixit station in front of Essex Hall.
The installation of a new service station on the UWindsor campus will make it easier to commute by bicycle.
This photo of Windsor and Detroit during Earth Hour 2013 was taken from orbit by Canadian astronaut Chris Hadfield.
The University’s environmental advocate is encouraging participation in Earth Hour.
The Council of Ontario Universities praised the University of Windsor for the appointment of its first environmental advocate.
How green is our tally? Paul Henshaw hopes to provide an answer to that question by using the Sustainability Tracking, Assessment and Rating System (STARS stars.aashe.org) to quantify the state of the University of Windsor.
To that end, the UWindsor environmental advocate has circulated a questionnaire asking faculty members whether their research or courses are focused on, or related to, sustainability.
An online survey of the ways UWindsor faculty, students and staff get to campus will help researchers to measure the University’s overall environmental impact.
The questionnaire asks participants about their trips to campus to study or work, and whether they travel by car, bus, bicycle or on foot. Participants may enter a draw to win one of five prizes worth $100 as UWinCARD credit or a University Bookstore gift certificate.
