Course Information

ENVRSUST 9200 – Interdisciplinary Consulting Project

The purpose of this course is to give students an opportunity to work with a client in a non-academic, applied setting. Members of each Consulting Group will jointly undertake environmental research. Upon completion of the course, each Consulting Group will make a formal presentation of their research findings and recommendation and will provide their client with a professional quality report. The course instructor will present the projects and students will compete for the projects.

Please Note that the MES program plans to have two sections for this course. Both sections will run at the same time, requiring the hire of two instructors or one instructor per section.

Qualifications

Candidates must have academic or industry experience in a relevant discipline and a demonstrated record of high performance and expertise in the specific subject area.

Affirmation Policy

Western, like many postsecondary institutions in Canada, is moving beyond sole reliance upon Indigenous self-identification in its hiring processes. This is to safeguard against the use of incorrect, incomplete, or misleading information in circumstances in which a candidate has made a declaration of Indigenous citizenship or membership. Candidates who are invited for an interview or who are short-listed, and who have made a declaration of Indigenous citizenship or membership for material advantage at Western, including where required or preferred for the position, will be asked to have their declaration of Indigenous citizenship or membership affirmed through a relational accountability process, led by the Office of Indigenous Initiatives (OII), that is consistent with Indigenous ways of knowing, being, and doing. Please contact the OII directly for details on the affirmation processes: https://indigenous.uwo.ca/. The policy can be viewed at: POLICY 1.58 - Affirming Declarations of Indigenous Citizenship or Membership at Western University.
