Meet Kira Tarasuk, a 5th year student at the University of Guelph, majoring in Math with an emphasis in Computer Science. Kira established herself as a champion for the Math and Stats program by becoming involved in both extracurricular and academic activities.
Cherries, with their luscious taste and brilliant red hue, have been a symbol of abundance and life in various cultures. But beyond their aesthetic appeal, they hold a hidden potential waiting to be unlocked. In the heart of Ontario's fertile Niagara region, an innovative initiative is taking shape.
Dr. Ashutosh Singh, an Associate Professor from the School of Engineering at the University of Guelph specializing in food and bioprocess, is on a mission to revolutionize the way we view and promote lesser-known varieties of cherries.

Modelling Waste Decomposition
The Doody Family Chair donated the Undergraduate Research Assistant (URA) Fund for Women in Engineering (WIE). We decided to find out about the impact of these positions in supporting current students to gain invaluable research experience this past summer.
Q: When did you graduate? What program were you in?
A: I graduated in Spring 2021 with a Bachelor of Computing (Co-op). My major was in Software Engineering and my minor was in Math.
Q: When did you become interested in your field?
We sat down with 4th year Mechanical Engineering student Ramy Rizkalla to disuss his thoughts on the University of Guelph and his program.
Q: Discuss some of your extracurriculars on campus (intramurals, clubs, etc):
On October 14th, Women in Science and Engineering (WiSE) club and Creative Encounters (CE) hosted 63 young, energetic attendees. WiSE and CE created three interactive workshops, namely the Windy City Challenge, Catapult Basketball, and Paper Roller Coaster Build. During the workshops, more than half the parents and guardians participated in a tour of some of the School of Engineering labs. Later, they actively engaged in a panel discussion, addressing various questions related to the field of engineering.
