SURGE Programs

SURGE Clubs

Weekly drop-in sessions are intended to engage students throughout the term on various technologies essential to research. During the 2024 summer term, the NeuroTech Club is hosted every Thursday in the SURGE Hub from 3 - 5 pm.

Deep Dives

Multi-day or multi-week activities intended to provide students with brief, but deep exposure to the processes of innovation and entrepreneurship through experiential learning in team settings. Includes Hackathons, Make-a-thons, Startup Weekends, and Dalbox Access.

Science Innovation Class

A full-year capstone course focusing on the processes of innovation and entrepreneurship. This course is project-based and taught through team-based experiential learning.

Career Panels and Workshops

In partnership with Dalhousie’s Faculty of Science, we will be hosting monthly career panels and professional development workshops. This will allow science students the chance to hear from various professionals on how they are using their science degrees in their work. The workshops will be focused on teaching students various soft skills sought out by the workforce. These are free and open to any student interested.
