Professor Raouf Boutaba, Director of the Cheriton School of Computer Science, has received the Award of Excellence in Graduate Supervision, a recognition conferred annually since 2005 by Waterloo’s Graduate Studies and Postdoctoral Affairs in collaboration with the Graduate Student Association.

“Congratulations to Raouf on winning the Award of Excellence in Graduate Supervision,” said Mark Giesbrecht, Professor of Computer Science and Dean of Mathematics. “I have seen firsthand the exceptional mentorship and guidance he has provided to a generation of graduate students, many of whom have won prestigious academic awards of excellence themselves and are now leaders in industry and academia.”
