The report is in six volumes. Volume A deals with chemical engineering, B with electrical engineering,C with metallurgical and materials engineering, D with mechanical engineering, E with industrial engineering, and F with civil engineering. Each volume contains the COU and ACAP reports for engineeringas a whole together with the consultants' report and other material appropriate toone of the disciplines. The COU report will he in three parts: Part I dealing with recommendations approved in June 1974 and dealing with most of the fields, Part II approved in September 1974 and dealing with mechanical and industrial engineering, and Part III to appear later dealing with civil enOneering. This volume printed in the fall of 1974 contains Parts I and II. FOREWORD As a consequence of a study of engineering education in Ontario (described in more detail in. the subsequent ACM report) the Council of Ontario Universities called for a planning assessment of PhD programmes in engineering to be carried out by ACAP in cooperation with CODE. The Advisory Committee on Academic Planning (ACAP), as presently constituted, was established by the Ontario Council on Graduate Studies at the request of the Council. of Ontario Universities in January, 1471. The Advisory Committee's terms of reference were directed broadly toward the effective planning and rationalization of long -term graduate development in Ontario's universities both at the level of Individual disciplines and at a more general level:The Advisory Con-.ttee's activities are based on the premise that graduate work is tf.eone area of university activity in which specialization among univeries, cooperative arrangements and comprehensive planning are most necessary.' The disciplinary planning process involves a discipline group composed of one representative from each university with an interest in graduate work in the planning area. In the case of engineering, CODE was also involved in a way, described in the ACAP report.' The ,discipline group assists in defining the precise academic boundaries of each study, and prepares a commentary on the consultants' report. The final decision on consultants for the planning study is made by ACAP. The consultants are requested to make recommendations on Programmes to he offered in Ontario, desirable and/or likely enrolments, the aivision of responsibility for programmes among universities, and the desirable extent of collaboration with related disciplines. While the consultants' report is the single largest element in the final report on the planning study, ACAP considers the statement of each university's forward plans to be most significant.These forward plans are usually outlined prior to the planning study, and are used as a basis for comments from the universities concerned on the consultants' report. On receipt of the consultants' report, and comments on it from the disicpline group and the universities, ACAP begins work on its own recom- mendations for submission directly to the Council of Ontario Universities. CM considers thr input from all sources, and prepares the position of the Ontario university community. The following report is one of a series of disciplinary planning studies carried out by the Advisory Committee on Academic Planning and to he oublished by the Council Ontario Universities. The emphasis of the report is on forward planning, and it is hoped that the implementation of COU's recommendations will help to ensure the more ordered growth and development of graduate studies in Ontario's universities. Council of 9ntario Universities Conseil des Universites de l'Onario Report and Recommendations concerning Doctoral Studies in Engineering - ?art I On the instruction of the Council of Ontario Universities,the Advisory Committee on Academic planning, in cooperation with the Committee of OntarioDeans of Engin- eering, has conducted a planning Assessment fordoctoralleork in engineering.. This arose from the need to re-examine the recommendations concerning PhDwork which appeared in Ring of Iron, The background to the study, the procedures followed and the planning techniques usedare described in the ACAP report and are not repeated here. The resultant report from ACAi' is attached togetherwith the consultants' reports,-the comments by the disciplinegroups, the comments of the individual universities, and the comments of CODE. It is important for the reader to read the attachments in order toup rstand the recommendations in this Report from COU. COU will issue subsequent partso this report dealing with mechanical, industrial and civil engineering. L The Council received the ACAV report and supportingdocumentation on April 11, 1974. The content of the ACAr documentwas debated on April 11, on May 3, and on June 7, 1974. As a result of these

  • Women at the University of Ottawa by Michel Prévost, Chief Archivist, University of Ottawa
    From the Kitchens to the Chancellorship: Women at the University of Ottawa by Michel Prévost, Chief Archivist, University of Ottawa One hundred years ago, there were no female students at the University of Ottawa, since this Oblate institution admitted only young men. Of course, there were a few women working at the institution, but they were all members of the Petites sœurs de la Sainte-Famille, a religious order relegated to domestic chores, specifically kitchen, laundry and housekeeping duties. However, things changed quickly in 1922 when four members of female religious orders were granted university diplomas. Even so, these women did not attend the University of Ottawa, but rather its affiliated colleges led by religious orders. The first women students It wasn't until 1923, with the creation of the a teaching school, namely l’École de pédagogie, (which would become l’École normale in 1927), and later, in 1933, with the founding of a nursing school known as l' École des garde-malades and finally in 1956, with the creation of a school of home economics known as l’École des sciences domestiques, that the Sandy Hill campus would begin to see young women as students. In 1929, Bernadette Tarte and Rita Roy were the first lay women to receive a Bachelor of Arts degree from the University of Ottawa. Four years later, Sister Joseph-Arthur (Claire Laramée) and Thérèse Archambault were the first to be awarded doctoral degrees. However, these women were certainly the exception to the rule back then. These three schools played a major role in the progress of female students because they specialized in areas largely dominated by women, particularly nursing and home economics.

However, the thought of financing that education often places a damper on the mood. There are many intellectual and hardworking students that are deprived of the chance to pursue their dreams to their utmost poten- tial. Students may be unable to secure funding or are too busy working multi- ple side jobs to manage their academic finances. Our goal at Canadian Student Relief is to ensure that education is accessible to every student who desires it. In this article, we bring you a plethora of scholarships that you can access through our website. With resources geared towards Indigenous students, students with disabilities, immigrant students and more.

  • COU Academic Colleague Report (Dr. Tony Bauer)
    ACADEMIC COLLEAGUES AND COUNCIL OF ONTARIO UNIVERSITIES (COU) REPORT LAKEHEAD UNIVERSITY REPRESENTATITIVE . TONY BAUER Venue: UNIVERSITY OF OTTAWA. APRIL 7 -8TH 2011. The following is a summary report from meetings with Academic Colleagues Meetings and the Council for Ontario Universities (COU). A more detailed COU update is available on line at the Senate website. 1.BUDGET RELATED IMPACTS The provincial government budget announcement by the Ministry of Training Colleges and Universities (MTCU) included the following: • A positive commitment to multiyear funding for a 60,000 student enrolment growth for post secondary education. This will result in 41,000 university spaces for the next 5 years and projections for the first 3 of the 5 years. • Details regarding specific allocations to individual Universities and the division of funds for undergrad and graduate programs was not provided. • Capital funding allocations for 2011/12 have not been provided to date with a possible strategy expected in May. The Ontario government has re committed to a ten year infrastructure plan for capital projects. • The facilities renewal program (FRP) will probably remain equivalent to 2010/11reduced to $26M from $40M with universities allocated 17.3M IN 2010/11. • The overall facilities index system indicates that buildings are in poor condition with a replacement value for facilities infrastructure at $19.3 billion and $1.97billion for deferred maintenance. To maintain campuses in the current condition requires $380.8 million per year. • To maintain our campuses in their current condition requires an annual expenditure of $380.8 million. Although data reported for deferred maintenance is reliable government funding has not kept up with demand.
