Enrichment Guide 2018 Enrichment Guide: A world of possibilities. Contains a variety of exciting educational, enrichment and experiential programs, including: 2018 - 2019 • Enrichment programs • Pre-university experiences • Helpful websites for planning ahead • And much more... We are happy to bring you the latest edition of the UCC Enrichment Guide, and hope that it may prove to be an invaluable resource. Much like the variety of extra-curricular opportunities available at UCC throughout the year, engagement beyond the walls of UCC, whether during the year, or over the summer break, provides students with the freedom to further expand on areas of interest, to hone in on experiences that are truly personal, and to continue to find ways to supplement their intellectual and personal growth. Additionally, and practically, these opportunities also afford students a chance to engage in activities that help clarify possible post-secondary and career paths. We recognize the value these experiences add to their lives. Striving to prepare our students for the future, we’ve searched far and wide to find programs that help them develop into open-minded, communicative, knowledgeable, caring, balanced, reflective thinkers, risk-takers, and inquirers. Our aim is to highlight programs that we feel have value and offer unique experiences. We welcome and encourage students to connect with their university counsellor and share feedback on any activity that we have included here, as well as activities we could include in the next edition. We appreciate your comments, so please do not hesitate to contact us with your ideas and suggestions. Thank you...The University Counselling Office.

  • Department of Chemistry 2015 Newsletter June 2015, Issue 1
    Department of Chemistry 2015 Newsletter June 2015, Issue 1 A Message from the Head Why a newsletter? This is (to my knowledge) a first for our department, and long overdue. There is so much going on in our department year after year, it should be celebrated publicly, and not just in a 140-character tweet. This newsletter can't capture every moment of the past year, but should give anyone an idea of the kind of department we have built. I hope this snapshot of Chemistry in 2014-15 holds interest for all of our extended chemical family; everyone from prospective students, to current department members, to retirees and alumni from the days when Thorvaldson and Spinks were professors, not buildings. If you have read any of the pages on our website on the history of the department you will know Dr. David Palmer that Chemistry has been one of the strengths of the University of Saskatchewan from its earliest Head of Department days. We are carrying on that tradition, as we have gone through two reviews of programs in the past two years and been assessed as providing an outstanding learning and research environment for faculty, trainees and students. The TransformUs prioritization process, though controversial, correctly pointed to Chemistry as having one of the top sets of programs on campus. This year's Graduate Program Review also found our department to be a thriving research and training enterprise. As a result, we have won the right to expand our faculty and staff complements for the first time in many years.
