CEE Undergrads win President's Chapter Award

Earlier in the year, our undergraduate student chapter produced an annual report for the CSCE (Canadian Society of Civil Engineers) and amidst fierce competition, their report took home one of the coveted awards!

The CSCE Student Affairs Committee evaluated final annual reports (2015-2016) from 24 schools and awarded Waterloo the Most Improved Student Chapter.

The competition was very keen with many outstanding reports, but the committee was extremely impressed with the professionalism and the quality of our report.
