Teaching and Learning

With years of data and a wealth of publications, Tanya Basok, associate dean of research in the Faculty of Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences, has become an authority on the experiences of migrant agricultural workers and has leveraged her research knowledge as an expert witness in court cases fighting to protect their rights.

The University of Windsor is proud to announce a new academic collaboration with the Indian Institute of Technology Bombay (IIT Bombay) through a formal Memorandum of Understanding (MoU).

This partnership underscores our commitment to global engagement, academic excellence, and innovation, creating impactful opportunities for students, researchers, and faculty members.

Key Highlights of the Collaboration:

The Medical Biotechnology (MMB) program in the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry hosted a vibrant social gathering, Fall Fiesta, celebrating cultural diversity and traditions while bringing students together.

The event began with opening remarks from Professor James Gauld, head of the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry. It brought together incoming and outgoing students on Thursday, Nov. 28 dressed in traditional costumes, sharing food and fostering bonds and connection that continue beyond graduation.

Ontario’s Minister of Education, Jill Dunlop, added a stop on her tour of Windsor-Essex on Tuesday to observe Aleshia St. Louis, a teacher candidate from the University of Windsor’s Faculty of Education, in her practicum placement.

The visit to L.A. Desmarais Catholic Elementary School highlighted the practical experience that teacher candidates gain in the classroom, allowing the Minister to see firsthand the impact of in-class teacher training in preparing future educators.
