The Waterloo Engineering alumni class reunion in 2026 is taking place on June 6. The engineering Classes of 1961, 1966, 1971, 1976, 1981, 1986, 1991, 1996, 2001, 2006, 2011, 2016 and 2021 are invited to celebrate online if they are not able to come to campus.

It's a full day of discovery at TronCon 2026! TronCon will coincide with the Mechatronics Capstone Design Symposium to give alumni an opportunity to view the newest batch of Capstone design projects (FYDPs) by fourth year mechatronics students, get involved in judging the capstone design projects, and reconnect with the Tron community at the event and at the dinner that follows. 

The Faculty of Engineering celebrates the historical moment of grandeur to mark the Centennial of the engineering obligation with the Canadian engineering community in Hong Kong.

RoboHub and ESG Partners will be hosting a panel on Harnessing Robotics & AI For Climate Solutions, which aims to explore how robotics and AI can be applied to climate solutions and how a climate lens can be applied to existing robotics work in areas like healthcare to address climate threats. This event is taking place during CCWX 2025, which runs from November 24 to November 30th.

Faculty of Engineering Research Colloquium by Professor Michael Detamore on Paste-like Biomaterials for Traumatic Brain Injury and Cartilage Repair

As part of the Water Institute's WaterTalks lecture series, Reza Najafi, Associate Professor of Civil and Environmental Engineering at Western University and head of the Hydroclimate Extremes and Climate Change Lab (HydroClimEX Lab), co-director of the Centre for Multihazard Risk and Resilience (CMRR), will present Compound flood and drought hazards in a changing climate: Implications for risk and resilience.

This event is in person in DC 1302 with a networking lunch reception to follow in DC 1301 (The Fishbowl).

Faculty of Engineering Research Colloquium by Professor Ranganathan Sitaram on Precision Neuromodulation and Real-time Multimodal Brain Imaging

Join us for a research lecture by Professor Ruibing Wang on supramolecularly engineered cells for targeted therapy. 

Join us for a webinar presentation by Dr. Krzysztof Czarnecki on the current state of autonomous vehicles, exploring active deployments, emerging challenges and research directions. The talk will also highlight research taking place in the Waterloo Intelligent Systems Engineering (WISE) Laboratory, which co-led the development of the first autonomous vehicle tested on public roads in Canada.
