The Canadian Science and Engineering Hall of Fame, was located at the Canada Science and Technology Museum in Ottawa, Ontario, honoured Canadians who have made outstanding contributions to society in science and engineering. It also promoted role models to encourage young Canadians to pursue careers in science, engineering and technology.[1] The hall included a permanent exhibition, a traveling exhibition,[2] a virtual gallery, and events and programming to celebrate inductees.[3] In 2017, the hall of fame was closed down.[4]

History

The Canadian Science and Engineering Hall of Fame was established in 1991 through a joint partnership by the Canada Science and Technology Museum, the National Research Council of Canada (NRC), Industry Canada and the Association of Partners in Education, to mark the NRC's 75th anniversary.[5][6] The hall became a major feature of the Canada Science and Technology Museum, and has become a part of the museum's permanent Innovation Canada exhibition.[3]

Induction Process

The museum used an open process for nomination of new members.[7] A selection committee reviewed nominations annually. Nominees must have met the following criteria:

  • They must have contributed in an exceptional way to the advancement of science and engineering in Canada;
  • Their work must have brought great benefits to society and their communities as a whole;
  • They must possess leadership qualities that can serve as an inspiration to young Canadians to pursue careers in science, engineering or technology.[1]

In April 2015, two members of the selection committee, Judy Illes and Dr. Catherine Anderson, resigned over concerns that, for the second year in a row, there were no female candidates in the list of finalists.[8]
