A new study by researchers at Waterloo Engineering shows people are more open to the use of social robots after living through the coronavirus pandemic.
A professor at Waterloo Engineering will lead testing and development of a prototype of a machine to disinfect personal protective equipment (PPE) that was donated this week by Toyota Motor Manufacturing Canada (TMMC).
The machine was developed by engineers at Toyota, in partnership with two local companies, after its plant operations were suspended in March due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
An incoming student will start her studies in systems design engineering at Waterloo this fall backed by a prestigious scholarship worth up to $100,000.
Anson Yu of Langley, BC, was drawn to Waterloo by its co-op program after she was named a Loran Scholar by a foundation dedicated to finding and nurturing high-potential young Canadians.

A health technology startup founded by three recent management engineering graduates as their 2020 Capstone Design project has been awarded a grant from the Clinton Foundation’s COVID-19
Researchers at Waterloo Engineering have found that outdoor watering restrictions in Canada do little to reduce overall water consumption during the summer.
A study by Sara Finley, a PhD student, and Nandita Basu, a professor of civil and environmental engineering, looked at 10 mid-sized cities with summer watering bylaws and five cities that don’t impose any limits.
A professor at Waterloo Engineering has won an award from an international organization dedicated to advancing knowledge of groundwater and professionals working in the field.
Neil Thomson, a professor of civil and environmental engineering, was honoured with the 2020 Keith E Anderson Award for scientists and engineers who make outstanding contributions to the National Ground Water Association.
Ken O'Driscoll, a long-time chemical engineering professor and department chair, died earlier this month.
Born on Staten Island in New York, he received his bachelor’s in chemical engineering from Pratt Institute and his master’s and doctorate degrees from Princeton University.
He joined the University of Waterloo’s chemical engineering department as its chair in 1970.
Three engineers with deep ties to Waterloo Engineering were among the contributors to the 2020 edition of Letters to a Young Engineer, an annual publication given to graduating engineering students.
A Waterloo electrical and computer engineering professor provides feedback on the federal government’s COVID-19 app in a question-and-answer article released today.
Mark Crowley says the new technology uses Bluetooth connections and random codes generated and stored by an individual’s phone to track connections with other nearby phones that also have the app installed.
