Abstract:
Environmental engineering education has been an active option for engineers from all disciplines for nearly 50 years at the graduate level. Some graduate programs expanded to integrate students with undergraduate science degrees with the engineering programs, since the cross discipline interaction is required outside the academic programs. In the mid-1980s interest increased to such a level that undergraduate programs began to form. Several of these programs have been accredited in their various forms recognizing the diversity of the field and those presenting the programs. The progression fro

The selective success of women in traditionally male dominated fields is identified as a paradox whose explanation will have implications for the issue of the under representation of women in science and engineering programs. Trends in degree attainment by sex science and engineering are examined in the context of degree attainment in all traditionally male dominated degree programs in order to generate empirically based hypotheses. Because research designs in use for quantitative data in sociology are much better designed to test hypotheses than to generate new ones, an important aspect of th

Abstract:
Chapter 5 outlines the key considerations for every medical student considering undertaking an intercalated degree. Intercalated degrees offer the opportunity for each medical student to gain a further stand-alone degree in the course of their medical training. This chapter outlines the difference experiences on offer as part of an intercalated degree: from laboratory-based research to involvement in clinical studies, projects relating to healthcare policy, economics, and public or global health, and may involve work undertaken abroad or at another medical school or institution. This chapter systematically outlines the pros and cons of undertaking an intercalated degree. Furthermore, advice on how to choose a project and supervisor and tips on how to get the most out of your time during this year are outlined. Presenting and publishing research are key academic skills which enhance your academic record but also present opportunities for further understanding your research and may foster collaboration with other research groups. This chapter presents tips on how to present research (both poster and oral presentation), abstract writing, poster design, and advice on strategies to ensure your research gets published in the peer-reviewed academic literature. An overview of statistics, including the basic language used in statistics, is provided.

Abstract:
This chapter looks at Statistics Canada and the academic literature to present some stylized facts and figures regarding urban older adults and a synthesis of the challenges and opportunities of aging in urban environments. It provides a snapshot of Canadian urban demographic trends and an overview of the state-of-the-art thinking on urban aging. It also describes Canada as a predominant nation of rural spaces as urban locations occupy only 0.25 percent of Canada's 9.9 million square kilometres. The chapter focuses on the three largest metropolitan areas: Toronto, Montréal, and Vancouver, which are home to more than a third of all Canadians with a combined population of 12.5 million. It refers to urban Canada, which evokes the images of being big, bustling conurbations with dense downtowns, skyscrapers, and expensive housing.

Abstract:
This chapter explores issues that have influenced Black women in Canada and the Caribbean in their pursuit of advanced degrees and regular academic roles in Computer Science (CS) and related fields. The concern is with the low representation of Black women in such roles and the reasons why some women have chosen the field and others have fled from it. The issues are related to gender and race and have been gathered from the scientific literature on Computer Science Education. Black women in Canada and the Caribbean who are on paths towards and in regular academic roles in CS were surveyed about how these issues have influenced them and their peers for or against CS in general and more specifically advanced education in Computer Science, since these such choices for CS are a requirement for regular academic roles in CS. This work delivers insights into an understudied locale for an underrepresented group in a field critical to economic development in Canada and the Caribbean. Based on our findings, we make recommendations to increase the number of this underrepresented group.

Abstract:
In 1962, purdue University in West Lafayette, Indiana, in the United States opened a department of computer science with the mandate to offer master’s and doctoral degrees in computer science. Two years later, the University of Manchester in England and the University of Toronto in Canada also established departments of computer science. These were the first universities in America, Britain, and Canada, respectively, to recognize a new academic reality formally—that there was a distinct discipline with a domain that was the computer and the phenomenon of automatic computation. There after, by the late 1960s—much as universities had sprung up all over Europe during the 12th and 13th centuries after the founding of the University of Bologna (circa 1150) and the University of Paris (circa 1200)—independent departments of computer science sprouted across the academic maps on North America, Britain, and Europe. Not all the departments used computer science in their names; some preferred computing, some computing science, some computation. In Europe non-English terms such as informatique and informatik were used. But what was recognized was that the time had come to wean the phenomenon of computing away from mathematics and electrical engineering, the two most common academic “parents” of the field; and also from computer centers, which were in the business of offering computing services to university communities. A scientific identity of its very own was thus established. Practitioners of the field could call themselves computer scientists. This identity was shaped around a paradigm. As we have seen, the epicenter of this paradigm was the concept of the stored-program computer as theorized originally in von Neumann’s EDVAC report of 1945 and realized physically in 1949 by the EDSAC and the Manchester Mark I machines (see Chapter 8 ). We have also seen the directions in which this paradigm radiated out in the next decade. Most prominent among the refinements were the emergence of the historically and utterly original, Janus-faced, liminal artifacts called computer programs, and the languages—themselves abstract artifacts—invented to describe and communicate programs to both computers and other human beings.

Participants addressed each one of the levers in their journey in higher education. Only a few Latinas reach leadership positions in organizations in the United States, despite their increasing interest in obtaining advanced college degrees. This issue is especially glaring in higher education, as the United States becomes increasingly diverse through the infusion of new immigrants. A U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics report from 2013 noted that 51.6% of women between the ages 25 and 29 were in a management, business, or financial operation occupation; and 8.7% of those women were Latinas. In the same way, only small numbers of Hispanic women reach senior leadership positions.

Abstract:
‘High, high above the North Pole, on the first day of 1969, two professors of English Literature approached each other at a combined velocity of 1200 miles per hour.’ That vivid opening to David Lodge’s Changing Places captures how globalization has reached the modern university. We saw in Chapter Four that only 28 per cent of British academics are defined as ‘sedentary’ having never worked abroad. 50 per cent have worked abroad for up to two years. The rest have migrated, moving away for more than two years or coming back after such a long stay abroad. We have fewer sedentary academics than any comparable country, apart from Canada which has an open border with the US. Thirty-six per cent of German researchers are sedentary—and 52 per cent of Italians. Half of research papers by British academics are now co-authored with someone overseas and they are more likely to be cited. David Lodge’s two professors were travelling back to the future: in the Middle Ages Europe’s universities formed a highly integrated international system. The structure of the medieval disciplines was the same across Europe and so were the key texts. There was a common language of scholarship—Latin. Degrees were recognized across Christendom, entitling a teacher to teach anywhere (the ‘Licentiate ubique docendi’). Scholars and students such as Thomas Aquinas or Erasmus moved between Rome, Paris, and Cologne. Now Europe’s Bologna and Erasmus programmes are gradually re-creating levels of integration which our universities achieved in the Middle Ages: we must hope that Brexit does not cut Britain off from this. The Bologna process is not an EU programme: it is an intergovernmental declaration agreed in 1999 which sets a common structure of university study to make it easy for students to move between European countries. Heavily influenced by the English model, it specifies that a Bachelor’s degree takes 3–4 years, a Master’s degree 1–2 years, and a doctorate 3–4 years. Erasmus, by contrast, is the EU programme for promoting student and academic exchanges. It has proved particularly fruitful: over a million babies have now been born to students who met a partner from a different EU country as a result of the Erasmus programme.
