SCS Colloquium Series: David S. Johnson - The Traveling Salesman Problem for random points in the unit square: An experimental and statistical study


Computer Science alumnus Matei Zaharia comes back to the University of Waterloo to discuss Spark - a single programming model for big data sets - and the industry applications of the most active project in the Apache big data ecosystem.
The G.I. Jam is a multi-weekend event hosted by The Playful Pixel and the University of Waterloo’s Games Institute. The theme for the G.I. Jam is "Learn, Make, Play"; where each of our events are designed to appeal to a wide variety of playful people:
For the Summer 2014 G.I. Jam, we've combined our LEARN and MAKE events into a single weekend of tutorials, talks, and game making madness!
Admitted students and their families are invited to join us on campus for this celebratory event to learn about the next steps in the admissions process, meet with faculty and staff, and tour our residences.
We look forward to seeing you there!
Take a guided tour of our math and computing buildings any day during March Break and learn about our Computer Science programs.
Campus tours can be booked through our Visitors Centre with the option to take a special tour with a representative from the Cheriton School of Computer Science.
Inquire with our Visitors' Centre about how to participate.
Register for a campus tour with the Visitor's Centre and sign up to take a special guided tour of our math and computer science buildings.
Faculty tours will take place every Friday in March at 1:30 pm.
Come and meet our friendly faculty, staff, and students by attending a full day event on the Waterloo campus to learn about Computer Science
and its programs.
Participate in our academic sessions and campus tours by registering online (uwaterloo.ca/findoutmore.ca).
The campus will be open to all future students but sessions will be designed for grade 12 applicants.
