First - congratulations! You made it.

We're excited that you're here and we're going to start your first year at the University of Waterloo with a bang.

To get you #UWREADY and help you make lasting connections with your fellow #mathies, we've put together a variety of sessions and activities to get you set up on the right path for success.

New for Friday night…its Alumni vs Students in the ultimate LOOP Elimination Tournament.  Battle through your classmates in quick 4 minute games of LOOP pool.

Join us

On Friday, September 28 we will launch the new Cybersecurity and Privacy Institute.

The Institute brings together under one umbrella Waterloo’s 40 security researchers from across the University. These renowned experts are collaborating to uncover new approaches to security and privacy while also partnering with corporations and government to advance the application and implementation of cybersecurity and privacy technologies.

The incredible explosion in the power of artificial intelligence is evident in daily headlines proclaiming big breakthroughs. What are the remaining differences between machine and human intelligence? Could we simulate a brain on current computer hardware if we could write the software? What are the latest advancements in the world's largest brain model?

Participate in the discussion about what AI has done and how far it has yet to go, while discovering new technologies that might allow it to get there.

Complimentary tickets are required for this lecture.
