Your tax-deductible donation will help future students in the Faculty of Science discover the unknown and invent the future! Support our Faculty with a gift to one of three worthy initiatives.
Wawatay Project (Anishinaabe for Northern Lights)This comprehensive program aims to recruit, retain, and graduate indigenous science students. Wawatay engages a holistic and immersive approach with tight partnerships with home communities and a strong emphasis on student research connected to that community.

At the ForefrontUM science students and faculty deliver cutting-edge fundamental and applied research that can change our world. Maintaining a strong and growing research environment requires investments in faculty, graduate programs, undergraduate honours students and their research, and laboratory infrastructure. To stay at the forefront, we also need seed funding for new ideas, innovation and industry collaborations.

Beyond the Classroom – Connect Students to their FutureWe can increase UM students’ future career opportunities by connecting science to the world beyond our university. This initiative unlocks student potential by placing a greater emphasis on integrated project-based learning, co-ops and internships, participation in challenge competitions, research experiences and engagement with alumni mentors. Your support will ensure more students have access to these critical experiences.

“The opportunity to participate in two international competitions (Robocup and FIRA HuroCup) has been amazing because it’s given me a new perspective into the endless possibilities in this field.”
ANDY LUN, COMPUTER SCIENCE
“While doing my undergrad in physics I knew I wanted to do something where I could have my fingers in everything. Now as a PhD student, I look at biocide-coated magnetic nanoparticles to treat infections. I love it! I get to make the particles. I get to test them. I get to do all the analysis and refinement. I have my hands on everything.”
RACHEL NICKEL, PHYSICS
“Indigenous people have always been defenders of land and I intend to uphold this value through my research. Through research and education, we can defend our lands, culture, and languages and preserve this knowledge for generations to come.”
TAYLOR MORRISEAU, VANIER SCHOLAR – WXN CANADA’S MOST POWERFUL WOMEN – CORPORATE KNIGHTS TOP 30 UNDER 30
“The undergraduate physics program at the Faculty of Science prepares students well. Part of this is due to the knowledge/skill of the instructors, and part of this is that many/most undergraduate physics students have the opportunity to work in research labs over the summer. This hands-on experience is not available everywhere and is invaluable.”
MICHAEL HARDER, PHYSICS
