Current undergraduate students

There are some wonderful opportunities available for engineering students to study for one or two terms at other leading engineering schools worldwide while earning credits toward their Waterloo degree!

Find out how you may be able to take advantage of this.

Ontario’s wholesale electricity market is the hub at the centre of our system matching buyers and suppliers in real time, ensuring reliability and efficient dispatch all the time.

In many respects this dynamic marketplace, administered by the IESO, has been the unsung hero of the Ontario electricity sector accommodating the once in a lifetime changes that are occurring – phase out of flexible coal-fired generation, renewables, smart meters and step changes in technology advancement such as energy storage.

Dr. Thomas Harter, the Robert M. Hagan Endowed Chair for Water Management and Policy, Department of Land, Air and Water Resources, University of California, Davis, will deliver a Water Institute Lecture: Future of Groundwater Management in California.

Dr. Althea Grundling, Agricultural Research Council, Institute for Soil, Climate and Water, South Africa, will deliver a seminar: South African Peatlands.

Abstract

Not all wetlands in South Africa are peatlands. Peatlands are characterised by the unique ability to accumulate and store dead organic matter from wetland vegetation under almost permanent water saturated conditions and low oxygen content. Peat is, therefore, not only a resource for soil carbon but also fresh water.

Join in marking the twenty-fifth anniversary of the École Polytechnique de Montréal tragedy honouring the women who lost their lives and commemorating the National Day of Remembrance and Action on Violence Against Women.

You’re invited to The Purple Tie event, a complimentary networking reception for Systems Design Engineering alumni, showcasing the Department of Systems Design Engineering student design projects undertaken in the Fall term.
