Student teams show well at Ontario engineering event

Thursday, January 28, 2021

Teams representing Waterloo Engineering made the top three in six of eight categories at the recent Ontario Engineering Competition, which was held online due to the COVID-19 lockdown.

The two Waterloo teams, the winners of campus competitions held in the spring and fall of last year, together collected two firsts, three seconds and a pair of thirds at the 42nd annual event.

Undergraduate students competed in communications, programming, consulting, re-engineering, junior design, senior design, debates and innovative design over two days.

Both teams from Waterloo also qualified for the Canadian Engineering Competition, to be hosted by the University of New Brunswick in February, by recording top-two category finishes.
