EMAGIN is Canada’s first artificial intelligence company for the water sector, and co-founded and jointly run by CEE and other UW students.
We are pleased to announce that at the CSCE (Canadian Society of Civil Engineers) Annual Congress in London, ON last week, the Capstone project team representing the University of Waterloo’s Civil and Environmental Engineering (CEE) Department came in 3rd place nationally!
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.
Congratulations to the 2016 CEE 3MT competition winners!
