The Certificate in University Teaching (CUT) program provides a comprehensive teacher development experience that is open to PhD students at the University of Waterloo.
Each year, the Centre for Teaching Excellence and Graduate Studies and Postdoctoral Affairs acknowledge one CUT program participant in recognition and celebration of effort that goes above and beyond the course requirements.
The winner of the 2020 CUT Award is Amanda Raffoul, a PhD student at the School of Public Health and Health Systems. Amanda’s graduate research explores how food- and weight-related public health policies might have unintended consequences for the social and psychological wellbeing of young adults in Canada.
For more information on Amanda and the CUT award, refer to the news item on the Centre for Teaching Excellence website.

The University of Waterloo acknowledges that much of our work takes place on the traditional territory of the Neutral, Anishinaabeg and Haudenosaunee peoples. Our main campus is situated on the Haldimand Tract, the land granted to the Six Nations that includes six miles on each side of the Grand River. Our active work toward reconciliation takes place across our campuses through research, learning, teaching, and community building, and is co-ordinated within the Office of Indigenous Relations.
