1.7.1 THE GREAT LAKES INSTITUTE FOR ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH The Great Lakes Institute for Environmental Research (formerly the Great Lakes Institute, University of Windsor) is entering its second decade as a unique university research institute. Accompanying its change in name is a change in role. Where once the focus was on the science of the Great Lakes, the Institute is now concerned with all facets of the aquatic environment: ecology, toxicology, geology, climatology, engineering, human health, socioeconomics, and law. The Great Lakes Institute for Environmental Research is dedicated to the restoration and protection of the Great Lakes ecosystem. It is committed to excellence in the research it conducts, the education it promotes, and the training it provides. With excellence as their goal, the faculty and students associated with the Institute serve the immediate needs of the environmental community and anticipate the needs of future generations in the Great Lakes basin.

1.7.2 FLUID DYNAMICS RESEARCH INSTITUTE The Fluid Dynamics Research Institute was founded to foster inter-departmental and inter-College research and postgraduate teaching related to the dynamics of fluids in the most general sense of the term. Members conduct basic and applied research, and are committed to providing a broad training for graduate students in all aspects of fluid mechanics and heat transfer. Members are drawn from Mechanical Engineering, Civil and Environmental Engineering, and Applied Mathematics. Research ranges from theoretical studies on stability and exact solutions to enhancement of flow measurement techniques to implementation of commercial computer codes and development of new codes for industrial problems. Application areas include environmental engineering, the automotive, defence and petroleum industries, biomechanics and aeronautics. Graduate students affiliated with Institute members in their research projects will register in the member's department and complete the degree requirements of that department. Institute Members
