Mechanical & Mechatronics

Come show your spirit and get your purple on! 

The tradition continues on July 14, 2017 from 11:00 am to 1:00 pm to celebrate Engineering Day with our incredible community of students, alumni, professors and staff. This year's activities will include a colour throw (wear a white t-shirt!), BBQ featuring the famous 'Boggan Burgers, free treats and refreshments, a photo booth, purpling, The Tool and The Tool Bearers, and so much more!

Find out how your team can go from idea to funding in this "how to" session. Lyon Wong, Spectrum 28, outlines the steps to getting funded. Select teams are interviewed and funding readiness issues examined. It's two hours of "hands-on, how-to" knowledge involving real startups who are looking for funding.  Guest entrepreneur José Daire shares his insight on the importance of relationships in getting funded.

Who should attend: Undergraduates, Graduate students, faculty or staff who are interested in the steps to obtain seed funding. 

Graduating Students
Engineering Alumni Affairs cordially invites all engineering students graduating in 2017 to the Dean's toast to the Class of 2017 from 5:30 to 7:00 pm on Wednesday, March 29, 2017. The champagne toast will be at 6:00 p.m.

Pearl Sullivan, dean of engineering, the Registrar's Office, Engineering Alumni Affairs and the Office of Alumni Relations are pleased to invite you and your guests to an informal complimentary post-convocation reception.

Join us at the Student Life Centre in the Great Hall to celebrate your milestone achievement! The receptions start right after each convocation ceremony.

How do we know what our students know? What they don’t know? What and how much they’ve learned? How do we know if our teaching has had an impact on students’ learning?

Thoughtfully designed assessment practices can provide both a window into the diverse ways in which course content is understood (and misunderstood) by our students and a guide for future teaching decisions.

Fast Feedback Day

An open forum where teams present their ideas for fast feedback from a panel of experts. You can have your idea/company vetted by investors, industry subject matter experts and faculty experts.  

Chamath Palihapitiya (BASc ’99, Elect) and Brigette Lau (BASc ’99, Comp), founders of Social Capital, a Silicon Valley venture capital firm, are returning to campus to talk to Engineering students about two amazing opportunities that could change students' lives.
