The Deans of the Faculties of Engineering, Mathematics, and Science, invites you and a guest to an exclusive alumni reception at Sentry for an evening of networking with University of Waterloo alumni and co-op students currently on work term in San Francisco and the Bay Area.

Innovations in technology have advanced every aspect of our human lives — often with engineers at the helm. One such example is the intersection of health care and technology, as showcased by the University of Waterloo’s Global Futures framework which highlights the importance of health tech in our future world.

There are many urgent and exciting opportunities for engineers to step in and help redesign health care systems, innovate solutions and develop new ways of solving problems for the good of society.

Join this live event in Toronto with a panel of engineers, researchers and health tech entrepreneurs who will discuss how — in our rapidly changing world, challenged by rising costs and lack of access — engineering can help advance health care through technology.

The conversation will focus on how engineers can work towards solutions for optimal health care, showcase innovative research, discuss strategies for retaining health tech startups in Canada, identify challenges, explore opportunities and propose actionable solutions to foster an innovative and thriving health tech ecosystem in the country. 

Waterloo Engineering students and alumni are invited to participate in an exclusive in-person workshop with Waterloo Engineering alumnus Ron Ojanpera (BASc 1969, mechanical engineering). The “Working the Room” workshop is based on 50 years of Ron’s personal business experience.  

Waterloo Engineering recent alumni are invited to participate in an exclusive virtual conversation with Waterloo Engineering alumna, Lisa Tong (BASc ’01, Chemical Engineering), who recently published her book Hello (World) Me, a personal self-guided coach to self, awareness, understanding, and choices — to creating the life YOU want.
