Grad student Heather Christiansen holds up part of a jaw bone from a great white shark.
It would appear, at least for now, that the great white shark population in the northwest Pacific Ocean has remained fairly stable over the last 60 years. Heather Christiansen would like to keep it that way.
Hoda ElMaraghy is shown here in the iFactory in the Ed Lumley Centre for Engineering Innovation.
A University of Windsor professor has been recognized as a national engineering ambassador for being a pioneering leader in her field.
Hoda ElMaraghy was recently named the 2014 Partners in Research Engineering Ambassador.
History major Emile Naicker demonstrates the web site he created that's devoted to the history of the Manchester United football club.
When Emile Naicker came to university, he never imagined he’d be able to combine his love for history with his passion for his favourite football club.
But that’s just what the fourth-year history major did when he signed up for an innovative course taught by Heidi Jacobs and Rob Nelson called History on the Web. Designed to teach students how to integrate historical archives and other resources with modern communications technology, the course required each one to create a project demonstrating how they would preserve history on the internet.
Visual arts instructor Julie Sando is shown here in the Leddy Library holding a copy of "Least Wanted" by Mark Michaelson. A collection of of various mug shots, it plays a central role in the film.
When people get arrested and step in front of that camera for their mug shots, they may be at one of the lowest, most vulnerable points of their lives. So what is it about those images that make some people want to collect them, and perhaps even think about them as art objects?
That’s one of the central questions posed by a new documentary that a University of Windsor art instructor helped create.
Connect is an exhibit that showcases a variety of styles and approaches to printmaking.
More than 30 art students from the University of Windsor and McMaster University are exhibiting a series of prints at a local gallery and will hold a public reception on Friday.
Connect is the first collaborative print show between the two schools and includes wide variety of styles, techniques and approaches to printmaking.
From left, engineering students Shibin Pennickara, Hajjar Al-Hasna Ahmad Rizal, Yanting Liu, and Stephanie Shaw took top honours in the Water Environment Association of Ontario student design contest.
A group of fourth-year engineering students will get an all-expenses paid trip to New Orleans this fall after taking top honours in a contest that required them to design a new wastewater treatment plan for a rapidly growing region north of Toronto.
Nigel Hussey, shown here with his wife Anna, holds up a satellite tag like the one he attached to a Greenland shark in the Canadian Arctic. The device detached and floated all the way to Wales, where it was found by Mari Williams.
Call it a high-tech message in a bottle.
A satellite tagging device used to record migratory data that was attached to a Greenland shark in the Canadian Arctic in 2012 was recently found washed up on a beach in southwest Wales—just a short distance away from the spot where the wife of the researcher who planted it used to spend her summers.
Roman Maev and Dmitry Gavrilov pose with their thermographic analysis equipment at the Institute for Diagnostic Imaging Research.
Walk in to the Louvre, take a flash photo of the Mona Lisa and chances are you’ll be promptly escorted out by some rather unhappy security guards. Besides obvious copyright and security concerns, museum curators take a dim view of light from flashbulbs hitting the priceless art works for which they’re responsible.
Professor Max Nelson has mapped out the brewing traditions of ancient Europe based on the various ingredients and additives that were used to make beer.
More sophisticated beer enthusiasts may already know their favourite beverage was being made in places like Egypt and Mesopotamia as far back as 5,000 years ago. They may also incorrectly assume it was eventually brought from there to Europe as civilizations spread out and evolved, according to Max Nelson.
Nawaf Almutairi, Sameen S. Ali, and Said Said hold up their Grasshopper yard waste lawnmower grass clippings bag.
It’s only a short matter of time before lawnmowers start firing up and area homeowners are dumping their grass clippings into yard waste bags.
Now a group of engineering students has developed a simple yet ingenious way to make the whole process a lot easier: they’ve put the yard waste bag right on to the mower.
