Three graduating students at Waterloo Engineering are out to protect the environment and help farmers increase profits with technology to optimize the use of pesticides on crops.

Jack Paduchowski, Brandon Chan and Kurtis Eisler, classmates in the mechatronics engineering program, launched Maesos Technologies in 2020 to collect predictive weather and fungal spore data for wine grape farmers in the Niagara Region with custom sensors.

Over the past week, our campus community came together to mark some significant milestones in the lives of our alumni and graduating students. More than 7,000 degrees, diplomas and certificates were awarded during 16 convocation ceremonies and 4 celebrations. Never before have we celebrated convocations for three classes – from 2020, 2021 and 2022 – in one week. Perhaps most significant was the opportunity to once again connect in person with our friends and colleagues.

Cronin and Tan, along with 3 other Waterloo Engineering faculty members have been honoured for their outstanding contributions by being elected fellows by the Canadian Academy of Engineering (CAE).

The CAE is the national institution through which Canada's most distinguished and experienced engineers provide strategic advice on matters of critical importance to the country.

A key puzzle piece fell into place today with the announcement of $1.65 million in federal funding for a joint training program involving the University of Waterloo and partners in Germany.

The Office of the Vice-President, Academic & Provost has announced the winners of the 2021 Outstanding Performance Awards.

Congratulations to all of the winners and especially our MME Profs Kamyar Ghavam, Carol Hulls, Stewart McLachlin, Kevin Musselman, and Mohammed Nassar!

Capstone Design challenges students teams to push their own boundaries, and apply the knowledge and skills learned in the classroom and on co-op work terms. It reinforces the concepts of teamwork, project management, research and development. You'll see how we captured the student experience, plus alumni and industry partner involvement.
