Spring 2020 convocation

Three Ph.D. and four M.Math. C&O students will receive their degrees at the Spring 2020 convocation on June 19. This is the first time at the University of Waterloo that the convocation ceremonies will be held on-line. Students, and their family and friends, will also be invited to attend an in-person convocation ceremony when it is safe to do so.

Congratulations to the students and their supervisors!
