Our Faculty of Science alumni are excelling in their chosen fields, and our annual Alumni Awards celebrate their dedication and commitment.

Please join us in celebrating our exceptional 2024 Science Alumni Achievement Award recipients!

The Fusion Conference, operating since 2004, is a conference hosted at the University of Waterloo that merges knowledge from science, business, and technology fields through a unique theme each year. The theme of the 2023 Fusion Conference is "20 Years of Innovation: A Look Back and a Leap Forward", inviting students to explore the changes and challenges of technology and craft innovative solutions for a sustainable future. Registration is first-come and first-served depending on interest of case competition participation - registrants will be placed on a waitlist if the building capacity is exceeded.

This year's Conference will be held on November 16th, 2024 at Federation Hall, University of Waterloo.

Join us for our annual Earth and Environmental Sciences alumni cocktail reception in Toronto, and reconnect with your fellow Science alumni!

Speaker: Dr. Andre Issacs

It is becoming increasingly difficult for educators to be effective in the classroom if we continue to decouple students’ lived experiences from their academic learning. This talk will focus on modern strategies that capitalize on the unique learning styles of the younger generation, with special attention to students from historically marginalized groups, to broaden participation in STEM. 

Please note: this event is only open to members of the University of Waterloo community. Registration is required.

 An interactive, virtual panel of women UW Science alumni celebrate International Women's Day with a discussion around the 2025 theme, #AccelerateAction,
