Dr. Mark Wachowiak, associate professor in computer science and mathematics, is the kind of person who is always ready to lend a hand, especially if it involves interdisciplinary computational science. The recipient of the 2017 Chancellor’s Award for Excellence in Research is involved in many interdisciplinary, multi-institution collaborative research projects, as a team lead and co-researcher, both within, and external to, Nipissing University.

Humphrey is an outgoing, friendly face around Nipissing University and is constantly reminding students of ways to be more involved around campus. He has volunteered for the AskMe Team, Jack.Org, the Nipissing Biology Society, and as a Residence Executive. Beyond this, Humphrey has also worked as a research assistant.

Nipissing’s Office of Indigenous Initiatives, Enji giigdoyang, recently hosted a day of professional development for local educators aimed at building safer, more inclusive schools. The workshop was run by the Centre ontarien de prévention des agressions (COPA).
