Science News and Opportunities

There will be an information meeting for students on the School Nominated Internships and other Science options at lunch on Wednesday, January 11 in room 219.

Mount Douglas students excel in Science. There are many opportunities for high school students which are described in the attached document. Please note that the internships in Cancer Research and Triumf Physics are school nominated with applications due on January 30, 2017. The Gene Cure self-application is due on December 31, 2016.
Congratulations to the 14 students who represented Mount Douglas at this year’s Kwantlen Science Challenge in Richmond BC. The students worked in collaborative teams on engineering design projects, one hour lab processes and analyses and science Jeopardy. The Senior team achieved 5th place despite having the most creative design which was flummoxed by the air currents of the Kwantlen atrium and therefore did not complete the challenge. The junior grade 10 team honed their group skills and finished in a respectable 9th place.
