The Waterloo Ecology Network is comprised of students, faculty, and staff from numerous disciplines interested in all areas of ecology. Our group currently consists of members from Biology, Geography, Environment, Resources and Sustainability, and Planning, but we encourage participation from anyone studying ecology at Waterloo, regardless of departmental affiliation.
Our vision for the group is to unite ecologists at the University of Waterloo from different faculties and facilitate cross-pollination between departments. To accomplish this goal, we organize meetings and social events that will foster discussion, problem-solving, and collaboration.
The network is still in it's infancy, and if you have an suggestions for events you would like to see please contact us.
