When Armen Bakirtzian was a fourth-year mechatronics engineering student at the University Waterloo, he began work on a tool that would help orthopedic surgeons like his own father align joints more accurately. 

The University of Waterloo Robotics team came within a hair's breadth of successfully completing the Level 1 of the Sample Return Robot Challenge, a part of NASA's Centennial Challenges prize program.

The event, hosted by Worcester Polytechnic Institute from June 5-7 in Worcester, Mass., drew robotics teams from the United States, Canada and Estonia to compete for a total of $1.5 million in NASA prize money.

The Globe and Mail recently published a special report titled, "Engineering in Canada, Sky's the limit", highlighting advancements in engineering education, research, outreach initiatives, and sectors experiencing growth and recruiting challenges.  

Waterloo Engineering's new 1,400-kilogram payload crash sled was featured in action on a recent episode of Daily Planet. The crash sled provides vital information about the impact resistance and energy absorption capacity of light weight automotive structures.
