Twelve Western researchers – who delve into mysteries as deep as the human mind and as vast as the universe itself – have been named Canada Research Chairs as they bolster their place among the top scholars and scientists in their fields. The 12 wer …
Grace Nasri is intent on paving an independent path outside the physician footsteps of her parents – even if the end goal remains the same.
The Rwanda: Culture, Society and Reconstruction course in the Department of French Studies, taught by professor Henri Boyi, involves a five-week international service-learning experience in Rwanda.

It’s an important first step – one of which I am quite proud to be a part.
Western is recognized as one of the world’s leading academic institutions for the scientific exploration of brain and mind.
One year ago today, the Occupy Wall Street movement pushed earnings inequality to the forefront of global politics. With the protest still roaring, most studies suggest that earnings inequality is far greater in North America than in Europe, but is this really the case?
Eight Western students have been named recipients of the Vanier Canada Graduate Scholarship, Canada’s most prestigious scholarship for doctoral students.
In 2001, more than three quarters of immigrants to Canada settled in one of three cities: Toronto, Vancouver or Montreal. A decade later, an ever-increasing number of newcomers are finding homes in smaller communities across the country. Now, a new community-university research partnership will help facilitate this transition.
Richard Butts recognized a gap in his skills. Butts, who had no academic background in public administration prior to coming to Western, was driven to the university’s Master of Public Administration (MPA) program as his career responsibilities became more strategic in nature.
Gently cradling a 5,000-year-old cuneiform clay tablet from Ur, Andrew Nelson wishes he could peel back the layers to find out what makes up this first-generation iPad. And thanks to a new microCT scanner at Western’s Sustainable Archaeology Repository (SAR), the Anthropology professor has done just that.
The Western community is mourning the death of Natalie Woolley, a Faculty of Social Science student, who died Tuesday, May 1.
From primary health care and biochemistry to engineering and military history, three of Western’s four Distinguished University Professors will deliver their public lectures at 4 p.m. Wednesday, May 2 in Conron Hall, University College.
It’s time to ReThink London.
