Innovation and Entrepreneurship in Science

0 credits · Undergraduate

Innovation and Entrepreneurship is a group for first year students with an interest in how design thinking and innovation can lead to science or technology- based solutions for real world problems. In this FIG, you will meet other first year students and will have opportunities to explore your interests and opportunities together. We will talk about the creative process and design testing, and about opportunities to get involved in SURGE, Dalhousie’s Science sandbox, as well as the larger innovation ecosystem on campus. FIGS are a great way to gain unique access and exposure to experts, professors, labs and facilities during your first year in science.
