That’s a wrap – 2024 at the Faculty of Science
Welcome to our 2024 journey of innovation and discovery at the Faculty of Science. This was yet another year where we made transformative progress in expanding the frontiers of knowledge, enhancing the student experience and fostering an inclusive community. Join us as we take a look back at the highlights of 2024.
Research breakthroughs
From discovering ground-breaking facts about the smallest mammals to exploring deep space, from shaping the future of vaccine research to searching for a potential dark matter, our scientists have made remarkable contributions that drive meaningful change in our society. They are leading the way for innovative solutions to climate-related food security problems and protecting biodiversity. Explore our articles and videos to learn more about their impactful work.
Students’ success
Whether it’s winning a gold medal at the world expo of synthetic biology or competing in the Olympics, our students have accomplished it all. Supporting our students and witnessing them develop novel approaches for early disease detection in infants, driving a fundamental discovery from a chemistry lab to the market, volunteering for the love of bringing science to the general public, and so much more, have been our true honour. Dive deeper into our videos and articles to hear our students’ inspiring stories.
Our community
At the heart of science is people. People who come from different backgrounds, have different stories and bring diverse perspectives to the table. It is this diversity that enables us to tackle the world’s most complex challenges and create inclusive solutions. At the Faculty of Science, we strive to foster an equitable, inclusive and diverse environment where our community feels valued and empowered. Learn more about our initiatives on equity, diversity and inclusion and their impact, in action through our featured videos and articles.
2024 was a year where we had life-changing conversations with the members of our community and learned so much about the people who make the Faculty of Science an amazing place to study and work. Our communications team is grateful to everyone who gave us their time, appeared in front of our cameras, and gave us their story to write about. We cannot wait to see what 2025 brings along! Here is a compilation of all the moments that no one has yet seen behind the scenes.
