As a PMO, we strive to be the leading centre of excellence for project management, and the preferred resource for managing delivery of successful enterprise initiatives at the University of Waterloo.

We carry out our vision by providing resources and expertise to groups in the broader campus community. Our scope of responsibilities includes such activities as:

  • providing experienced and knowledgeable project managers to manage large and complex projects or programs
  • sharing skills and expertise to mentor or consult with project managers throughout the University who are managing projects and/or programs
  • offering workshops designed to help develop and advance the project management skills of the University community
