From an idea sparked in a Dal Physics lab to a company forged through Creative Destruction Lab Atlantic, Rayleigh Solar Tech is working to bring cheaper, more efficient solar cell technology to market.

Connecting supporters with their passions to create societal change is key to the university’s fundraising success.

First-year student Carl Vane Weghe shared her experience as an On Track Microbursary recipient at this week's Nova Scotia Donor Recognition Event — a celebration of how Dal's donors are making a difference through their generous support.

È«¹ú̽»¨â€™s Ignite dinner brought more than 1,200 alumni, friends, donors and community members to the Halifax Convention Centre to kick off the university’s third century with a celebration of creativity and inspiration in all its forms — from the scientist’s lab to the performing artist’s stage.

The Province of Nova Scotia has signed on to play a leading role in the $38.5-million expansion and revitalization of the È«¹ú̽»¨ Arts Centre, with Premier Stephen McNeil announcing the government's $10M contribution to Dal's Performing Arts Campaign.
