Alumni

Waterloo Engineering alumni and current students are invited to participate in an exclusive virtual International Women’s Day Office Hour: #BreakTheBias - Empowering Women to Succeed and Allies to Support, sponsored by Ten Thousand Coffees.

This International Women’s Day, we’re shedding light on the barriers that women face as they enter or navigate the workforce. The first step is building awareness and the next step is breaking them down - and we need women and allies to do both.

The University of Waterloo's Engineers Without Borders Chapter presents our Sustainable Engineering Design Challenge!

Funding agencies Mitacs, NSERC and Ontario Centre of Innovation (OCI) will each present co-funding opportunities for AI Applied Research Projects. Key takeaways for both Industry and Academia are to understand each individual program and further opportunities for bundled matching.

This year’s Go Code Girl Event will show you why data science matters and how you can change the world with it. You will learn about all the amazing things data scientists do, work on a cool project with real data sets and listen to some amazing female data scientists as they share their careers, passions and challenging but fun work they do with data!

"Introduce a Girl to Engineering" is a fantastic way for students in grades 5-7 to experience what engineering is all about! We have two hands-on activities planned where participants will be introduced to the Engineering Design Cycle, make friends and experiment with block-based coding. Finally, if time permits, students will have the option of sharing what they have worked on and win some fun prizes!

Join us at the Round Table with Jasmine Shaw. The Round Table with WiE Leaders is a series of monthly roundtable discussions which provide networking and mentorship forum for graduate and undergraduate students. At the Round Table, we hope to connect you to WiE leaders in academia, industry and government. Listen to their stories and be inspired to overcome and succeed.

Are you interested in quantum mechanics or cryptography?

Then check out CPI's next event on Feb 28th from 6:30pm to 8:00pm. Learn how quantum computers can create security risks and how we can mitigate them!

CPI's Michele Mosca and Sara Zafar Jafarzadeh discuss why it is important to act now, even though cryptographically-relevant quantum computers are not available.

Empowering the students and educators of today to create the relevant workforce of tomorrow.
