Join us for the premiere hydro-environment research summit in Eastern Canada...

The IAHR Eastern Canada YPN is hosting a hybrid research seminar event inviting graduate students across the region to share about their research groups’ ongoing projects in hydro-environment disciplines. This initiative is a first-of-its-kind summit for IAHR’s first ever Canadian young professionals network. The primary goal of the project is to provide a networking platform for participating researchers for future collaboration.

The event

Our first ever research showcase; a summit of graduate students from research groups in Eastern Canada in the hydro-environment domains.

The presentations

Delegates will prepare and deliver a 12-minute slide deck overview of their research group's active projects, followed by 3-minute Q&A from fellow attendees.

The venue

This event is being offered in a hybrid format; join either in-person at the University of Waterloo campus (room E2-2350) or online via video conference.

Frequently Asked Questions

Presentations should be an overview of your research group’s active projects or major research interests.

Presentations will be 12 minutes in length, followed by 3 minutes of Q&A from fellow attendees.
