Name Change of College to College of Engineering and Physical Sciences

At the Senate meeting on May 23, 2017, President Vaccarino announced that as per the Senate-approved policy “Naming of Academic Entities and Awards”, the name of the College of Physical and Engineering Science will be changed to the College of Engineering and Physical Sciences, effective immediately.

The College of Engineering and Physical Sciences name can be used immediately, however, it will take time to change it in all official locations. The complete changeover should be completed in Fall 2017, which includes the official University of Guelph rebranding that is taking place campus wide. Discussion in the College will also take place on an appropriate short version of the name.
