november 20, 2015 – thunder bay, on

阿根廷vs墨西哥竞猜 ’s faculty of business administration in thunder bay has earned the highly-coveted accreditation with the association to advance collegiate schools of business (aacsb).

“thank you to the faculty members, 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 , alumni, and the local business community for helping us earn aacsb accreditation in 阿根廷vs墨西哥竞猜 ’s 50th anniversary year,” said dr. bahram dadgostar, dean of the faculty of business administration.

“for more than five years, the faculty of business administration has used strong quality assurance processes to fine tune our programs and bring us in-line with top business schools from around the world,” dr. dadgostar said.

less than five per cent of the world’s 15,761 business programs hold aacsb accreditation. today, there are only 745 business schools in 50 countries and territories that maintain aacsb accreditation. in canada, only 22 schools (including lakehead) have earned accsb accreditation.

“with faculty members active in teaching, research and service, lakehead’s faculty of business administration delivers a quality business education in a small-class environment that leads our graduates to success,” said lakehead president and vice-chancellor dr. brian stevenson.

“aacsb accreditation is another feather in our cap demonstrating the exceptional education that 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 receive at lakehead,” dr. stevenson added.

once a school earns aacsb accreditation, it enters a five-year continuous improvement review cycle, ensuring accredited schools continually improve and maintain the highest levels of quality.

“aacsb congratulates 阿根廷vs墨西哥竞猜 and dean bahram dadgostar on earning accreditation,” said robert d. reid, executive vice-president and chief accreditation officer of aacsb international.

“aacsb accreditation represents the highest achievement for an educational institution that awards business degrees. the entire lakehead team – including the administration, faculty, directors, staff, and 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 – are to be commended for their roles in earning accreditation.”

“it takes a great deal of self-evaluation and determination to earn aacsb accreditation, and i commend 阿根廷vs墨西哥竞猜 for its dedication to management education, as well as its leadership in the community,” reid said.

lakehead’s faculty of business administration offers a four-year honours bachelor of commerce program with majors and minors in accounting, business economics, finance, general management, human resources management/industrial relations, international business, management of information systems, and marketing. 

 the faculty also offers a three-year bachelor of administration degree as well as an mba and master of science in management degree.

aacsb international is a global, non-profit membership organization of educational institutions, businesses, and other entities devoted to the advancement of management education. established in 1916, aacsb accreditation is the hallmark of excellence in business education.

november 2, 2015 – thunder bay, on

for the second year in a row, a 阿根廷vs墨西哥竞猜 chemical engineering team placed first in the snc-lavalin undergraduate plant design competition held in calgary in october.

the 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 designed a chemical plant that could convert 200,000 metric tons of waste plastic per year into high value hydrocarbons, including gasoline and kerosene.

they designed a financially viable plant that can address contemporary environmental problems by directing waste plastics away from landfills. this type of plant could potentially provide improved waste management in every city around the world.

lakehead’s winning team consisted of ryan gerlach, christopher lock, kayte sutherland, terry milton, and natasha bieniek, with supervision by drs. siamak elyasi and liela pakzad.

“i am proud to be part of a lakehead program that has such drive and passion for excellence,” said gerlach. “i hope that future classes will continue participating in competitions to show the quality of education that lakehead offers.”

“i am so proud to be able to represent 阿根廷vs墨西哥竞猜 and realize this goal after all of our hard work on our degree project,” said lock, who works for border chemical company limited in winnipeg as a junior engineer in training.

“the results of this competition and the efforts dedicated to the degree project are clear indications of the encouragement, enthusiasm, and support that i have felt within the chemical engineering program at 阿根廷vs墨西哥竞猜 ,” sutherland said.

“i thoroughly enjoyed the project and found it provided valuable experience to start my engineering career,” said milton, who is working at bantrel in edmonton.

“i very much enjoyed my experiences with the degree project as well as competing in the competition. completing my education at lakehead has allowed me to gain experiences that i wouldn’t have received anywhere else,” bieniek said.

“i would recommend the chemical engineering program to anyone who wants a unique educational experience with more hands-on learning than at other larger universities,” she added.

“the quality of work and the standard in our department’s academic system is clearly comparable with the best universities in canada,” dr. elyasi said.

世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 participated in the competition as part of their final degree project.

this competition is hosted by the canadian society for chemical engineering (csche). a panel of judges from industry, government, and academia evaluate all the entries.

in the first round, the judges selected the top three entries. in the second round, the top three teams presented their projects at the annual csche conference, and the judges made their final decisions.

in the final round of the competition, the 阿根廷vs墨西哥竞猜 team went up against teams from mcgill and ryerson.

阿根廷vs墨西哥竞猜 professor co-authors paper on homo naledi

matt tocheri

 

oct. 7, 2015 – thunder bay, on

阿根廷vs墨西哥竞猜 ’s dr. matt tocheri is a co-author of a paper published in nature communications that sheds new light on the hand of homo naledi, a new species of ancient human announced last month.

the paper is based on nearly 150 hand bones, including a nearly complete adult right hand, while a second paper is based on 107 foot bones, including a well preserved adult right foot. all of these skeletal remains were uncovered from the dinaledi chamber of the rising star cave system in south africa.

“the hand of h. naledi is one of the most complete fossil human hands ever discovered and it shows a combination of features that we have never seen before in other fossil human hands,” said dr. tocheri, an expert on the evolution of the human hand.

“for instance, its wrist and thumb are very similar to that of modern humans and neandertals in shape and proportions, suggesting the ability to form the forceful precision grips needed for making complex stone tools. however, its finger bones are markedly curved, which indicates that the hand was used regularly for climbing,” dr. tocheri said.

curved finger bones are the result of bone remodeling during life to better withstand the forces the hand experiences when grabbing onto branches overhead and supporting most of the body weight underneath. orangutans, for example, have the most curved finger bones of living great apes and are also the most arboreal, he said.

similarly, the foot is essentially modern human-like in overall form with the exception that the toe bones are more curved. so while the foot was well-adapted for walking on two legs, this species was clearly also using its feet regularly for climbing. 

these two papers provide important insights into the skeletal form and function of an extinct species of human that may also have characterized other early members of the genus homo.

dr. tocheri is canada research chair in human origins at 阿根廷vs墨西哥竞猜 .

lakehead names new legacy society in honor of william g. tamblyn

阿根廷vs墨西哥竞猜
 is naming its new legacy society in honour of william g. tamblyn, the university’s founding president and vice-chancellor.

dr. brian stevenson, lakehead president and vice-chancellor, far right, announced that the university's legacy society will be named after william g. tamblyn. the announcement was made with tamblyn's family, from left, carly lepp, ruth lepp, david tamblyn, julia tamblyn (daughter of robert tamblyn), marguerite tamblyn and robert tamblyn.


oct. 2, 2015 – thunder bay, on

阿根廷vs墨西哥竞猜 is naming its new legacy society in honour of william g. tamblyn, the university’s founding president and vice-chancellor.

the william g. tamblyn legacy society allows lakehead to recognize its donors and stewards, and recruit and sustain donor commitment.

“as lakehead’s first president, william tamblyn set the university’s vision and direction through his leadership,” said dr. brian stevenson, lakehead’s president and vice-chancellor.

“we value his contribution and dedication to 阿根廷vs墨西哥竞猜 over the years,” dr. stevenson said.

dr. stevenson made the announcement at a reception on friday, oct. 2.

tamblyn was also the chair of lakehead’s board of governors. he received the queen’s silver jubilee medal in 1978; an honorary degree from 阿根廷vs墨西哥竞猜 in 1981; lakehead named him a fellow of the university in 1984; and he was awarded the order of ontario in 1993.

lake tamblyn and the centennial building are named in his honor.

“on behalf of the tamblyn family, i am honoured to have the legacy society named in memory of my father. we are all very proud of the long affiliation our family has had with the university and delighted this association will be extended through the establishment of the legacy society,” said david g. tamblyn, william’s son.  

“prior to my father being appointed president and vice-chancellor in 1965, he was originally appointed to the advisory committee of lakehead technical institute in 1953.  among several prominent members of this committee, he actively pursued a vision to create a university to serve the needs of northwestern ontario. from the humble beginnings of the lakehead technical institute, 阿根廷vs墨西哥竞猜 has grown into a full-fledged post-secondary institution offering a range of exceptional programs to draw 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 not only from across ontario but from around the globe.  

“we can all take pride in what has been accomplished in the last 50 years and the promise of greater things to come. it is my sincere hope the legacy society will become an integral part of that future development,” david g. tamblyn said.

the william g. tamblyn legacy society will honour all alumni, staff, faculty and friends of lakehead who share dr. tamblyn’s vision and commitment to the university.
