Engineering honours its own

The 2012 Waterloo Engineering Awards dinner held on November 22 honoured engineering's exceptional students, alumni and a friend of the faculty. More than 2,500 students received awards this year for everything from top marks to extracurricular activities such as leadership, community engagement, and involvement in athletics.

A number of awards were distributed at the event, including:

A paper written by Rafael Lotufo, an electrical and computer doctoral candidate, Zeeshan Malik, a computer science master's student, and their supervisor Krzysztof Czarnecki, an electrical and computer engineering professor, won the best paper award at the International Conference on Software Maintenance held in Riva del Garda, Italy. Their paper, entitled Modelling the ‘Hurried’ Bug Report Reading Process to Summarize Bug Reports, was singled out from 181 submissions. 

Brendan McDonald, a chemical engineering (nanotechnology) master’s student, captured the second place 2012 Excellence in Thermoset Polymer Research Award for his paper entitled Biomimetic Micro-Structured Surfaces: Pattern Transfer and Fabrication of Icephobic Epoxy Surfaces. McDonald, who is supervised by chemical engineering professor Boxin Zhao, presented his paper at the Thermoset Resin Formulators Association (TRFA) annual meeting held at the end of October in Orlando, Florida.
