Congratulations to Alex Rodrigues and Brandon Moak, former MME students, on their recently announced merger. Rodrigues and Moak started approximately five years ago during their second years and now have a market capitalization of over 5 billion USD.

Today the Faculty of Engineering has shared detailed and program specific class format plans for September 2021 with our incoming and current students.

Each department has posted details in a LEARN course for current undergraduate engineering students and in a TEAMS channel for current architecture students. These details are based on the information we shared with the Registrar’s Office, which is responsible for University-wide schedules and classroom space.

In the middle of the pandemic, Zongchao Tan created a book, Academic Writing for Engineering Publication: Guidelines for Non-native English Speakers

Each year, The Faculty of Engineering, with the assistance of the Sanford Fleming Foundation, honours faculty educators for their outstanding commitment to excellence in engineering education.

Peter Teerstra, MME Lecturer, is one of three 2019 recipients of the 2019 Teaching Excellence Award nominated by the Faculty of Engineering.

Recipients are:

A palm-sized device developed by researchers at the University of Waterloo uses radar and artificial intelligence (AI) to non-invasively read blood inside the human body. “The key advantage is simply no pricking,” said George Shaker, an MME professor at Waterloo.
