Welcome to the Faculty of Science at York University.
For more than five decades, our Faculty has been pushing the boundaries of discovery and innovation, teaching and learning, global and local engagement, and impact. And our track record of accomplishments inspires us to keep aiming higher.
Most recently, we developed new programming in biotechnology to meet the demands of today’s world in science and technology. Our instructors spearheaded innovative projects to enhance accessibility and student experience in labs and classrooms. We continued to advance our global engagement by strengthening our international partnerships and creating meaningful opportunities for students at York and abroad to connect and learn from one another. And collectively, our faculty members received more than $20 million in research funding (2023) to continue advancing scientific innovation.
The excellence of our programming, experiential education opportunities, teaching, research, and more will only continue to grow over the years. I look forward to working with our entire community to continue strengthening our national and global reputation as a hub of research and teaching excellence that fosters scientific discovery and prepares global thinkers to advance knowledge and make positive change in the world.
Above all else, our people are our priority. For our students, faculty, staff and community of alumni, donors and friends, York Science is your home, and we are here to support you on your journey to achieving your aspirations and goals.
