Through the Research Partnerships Program, the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council supports regional chairs to increase the participation of women in science and engineering. The Ontario CWSE is currently based at the University of Guelph. The recently appointed new chair-holder will be working closely with faculty and staff across other departments at the University to accomplish the program goals. In particular, female faculty from the departments of Computing and Information Science, Physics, Mathematics and Statistics, Chemistry and Biochemistry, and the School of Engineering will be working together to develop initiatives and activities designed to reach girls at the elementary and high school level, as well as women in their university studies and into their careers.
