The University of Waterloo and Google have announced a partnership that includes a $1M initiative to establish the Google Chair in the Future of Work and Learning. UWaterloo President Dr Vivek Goel said that this chair will “[connect] mathematics and computer science with the social sciences and humanities, and links academia with industry and government.” This chair, which is situated within the Future of Work Institute, will be held by Dr Edith Law, who will work with Google to design learning tools and environments. The partnership will also support research and education initiatives, including hands-on learning labs for students.
