Current undergraduate students

Undergraduate students: further your education and get another stamp in your passport with Bader International Study Centre, the international campus of Queen's University. The Centre is located in Herstmonceux Castle in East Sussex, United Kingdom, in the heart of the English countryside. This summer, you can learn intercultural skills, engage in extracurricular sports and social activities, and explore Europe while enrolled in one of Bader International Study Centre's unique programs.

Join the Water Institute on March 1, in DWE 3518 to learn about AquaHacking 2019: a multi-stage competition that engages entrepreneurs, raising awareness of water issues and fostering their commitment to solving them.

Come watch the finalists of the 3MT faculty-based heats present their research in the 3MT university-wide final competition.

Students, faculty, staff and alumni are welcome to watch the Canadian Engineering Competition (CEC) 2019 competition events. Various competitions in design, consulting, presentation and debate will take place throughout PSE from Friday, March 1 until Sunday, March 3.

The four-part Canadian Blockchain Olympiad Training Camp programme to prepare Canadian students for entering the 2019 International Blockchain Olympiad (www.ibcol.org), a multidisciplinary design & building competition for solving real-world challenges through decentralised apps.

This year, the Management Engineering's Capstone Design Symposium is showcasing the capstone design projects of fifteen teams of senior students. Each of these teams has tackled an emergent problem, in many cases sourced from a client company, with far-reaching implications in industries and areas as diverse as education, retail, manufacturing, software, non-profits, airlines, government,  fashion, and self-improvement.

Themes of this year’s projects include data analytics, data-driven decision-making and the design of systems that leverage this information into effective products and solutions.  In order to create these comprehensive tools, management engineering projects are often highly multidisciplinary, drawing from concepts in information systems, process design, behavioral science, mathematical modelling and optimization, and data science.

There are many projects to discover, take a look at the 2019 Management Engineering Capstone Design Projects.

Imagine having only 1 static slide and 3 minutes to explain the breadth and significance of your research to a non-specialist audience. The Three Minute Thesis (3MT) competition asks University of Waterloo research-based master's and doctoral students to do just that.

This paper investigates the impacts of two environmental policies: pollution abatement subsidy and emission tax, on a three-tier supply chain, where the manufacturer distributes via multiple competitive retailers and invests in a pollution abatement technology in manufacturing. The government pursues social welfare maximization, while the manufacturer and retailers are profit driven. We find that the subsidy policy offers the manufacturer greater incentives to abate pollution and yields higher profits for channel members.

In this talk I will present an overview of my research on chronic care services.  I will then focus on the problem of care delivery for complex patients, with multiple comorbidities. In this project, we develop a Markov Decision Process framework to manage care for individual patients with multiple chronic conditions through a complex care hub. Complex care provision influences the evolution of Patient Activation Measure (PAM), an indicator for healthy behavior, which affects the evolution of health state of patients.
