The program is open to both Canadian and international students. The program is offered at 17 participating universities across Canada. SHAD focusses on both academic learning through lectures, workshops, labs and group projects as-well as the development of an individual and community. These experiences are usually focussed on the areas of science, technology, engineering, arts, and/or mathematics (STEAM).[1] There is a rigorous application process, which goes in depth into both the students' academics and extra-curriculars. In 2017, over 1,900 students applied. SHAD normally runs from July 1–27.[2] HistoryThe SHAD program was founded by Dr. Derek Lane-Smith, a teacher, physicist, and entrepreneur. The first summer program ran at St. Andrew’s College in Aurora, Ontario in July, 1981,[3] and has since expanded to 16 university campuses across Canada. The program is named after Shad, the kind of fish found in Shad creek, near Aurora.[4] SHAD is a non-profit organization based in Waterloo, Ontario. Tim Jackson is the current President and CEO of SHAD. SHAD ProgramDuring the month, SHADs participate in various activities including lectures, workshops, labs, group projects, recreational activities and more. SHADs also participate in a Entrepreneurship Project (EP). In the project, SHADs are presented with the current years theme and propose a solution. SHAD also aims to create a community which then expands to the greater 'SHAD network' after the program. At the end of the program, SHADs receive certification of their participation and receive the 'SHAD Fellow' designation. SHAD Entrepreneurship ProjectEach year, SHAD presents a "Design-Entrepreneurship Challenge" to its participants. The project's "theme," usually an important issue that has both economic and societal implications and differs each year, is revealed to all of the SHAD participants in the first week of the program. The project is to be completed in teams before the program's end. Each group must plan and design a product or service that addresses the issue at hand, create a working prototype and business plan, and pitch their product in a process intended to simulate an entrepreneurial experience.[5] The 2018 theme was "Helping Canadian communities become more resilient against natural disaster," and was revealed via a video message from NASA and Canadian astronaut Andrew J. Feustel.[6][7] Previous themes have included: "Disaster & Emergency Preparedness" (2004),[8] "Health & Wellness" (2005),[9] "The Great Canadian Energy Challenge" (2006),[10] "Zero Waste Technology" (2007),[11] "Design with Conscience" (2008),[12] "Nature and Natural Fibres" (2009), "Designing for Canada's Aging Population" (2010), "Improving the Quality of Life for a Canadian Child with a Disability" (2011), and "Preventing/Reducing Obesity in North American Youth" (2012), "How might we improve food security for Canadians?" (2016),[13] "Meaningfully reducing Canada’s energy footprint" (2017),[14] "Helping Canadian communities become more resilient against natural disaster" (2018).
