Taking It
to the Streets
On May 13, Ryerson hosted Science
Rendezvous at Yonge-Dundas Square.
Science Rendezvous is a Canada-wide
festival that showcases the marvels of
science and engineering from Canadian
universities and laboratories. Over
6,000 Canadian innovators, researchers,
engineers and scientists took their lab
to the streets to engage directly with
the general public - including over 150
Ryerson students and researchers.
A science outreach pioneer in Canada,
Science Rendezvous was founded in
2008 by Ryerson, University of Toronto,
York University and the University of
Ontario Institute of Technology.
This year, Ryerson offered hands-on
activities, demonstrations and stage
shows in robotics, water science, energy,
engineering, architectural science, and
many other scientific areas. Visitors were
able to build catapults and water filtration
units, measure their own carbon dioxide,
and view aquatic invertebrates.

and educate the general public about science.
