The Honourable Lawrence MacAulay, federal minister of agriculture, was at Dal's Agricultural Campus last Friday for a Facebook Live event focused on connecting with young farmers and youth.

Dal's new Certificate in Computing in Arts and Social Sciences offers students in non-Computer Science programs a better working knowledge of technology, helping them forge connections between academic disciplines.

Maike van Niekerk has accomplished a lot in her time as a Dal Nursing student: conducting research on cancer and Canada's Indigenous peoples; winning several major university and community awards; launching a cancer charity in memory of her mother. Now, she's off to study at Oxford University as a Rhodes Scholar.

The ÿÈÕ´óÈü Census is a confidential survey about the university's diversity, and helps Dal develop programs and supports to foster a respectful, inclusive environment for everyone. Learn more about the census and how to complete it.

Researchers from Dal's Faculties of Science and Medicine took home awards in three of the four major categories at the 14th annual Discovery Awards, which celebrate science, technology and innovation in Nova Scotia. Dal Physics Professor Jeff Dahn was also inducted into the Nova Scotia Science Hall of Fame.
