Cooperative education program is compulsory.

The Faculty of Engineering is one of six faculties at the University of Waterloo in Waterloo, Ontario, Canada. It has 8,698 undergraduate students, 2176 graduate students, 334 faculty and 52,750 alumni [1] making it the largest engineering school in Canada [2] with external research funding from 195 Canadian and international partners exceeding $86.8 million. [3] Ranked among the top 50 engineering schools in the world,[4] the Faculty of Engineering houses eight academic units (two schools, six departments) and offers 15 bachelor degree programs in a variety of disciplines. [5]

All undergraduate students are automatically enrolled in the co-operative education program, in which they alternate between academic and work terms throughout their five years of undergraduate study. There are 7,600 co-op positions arranged for students annually. [6]

History

The Faculty of Engineering was originally conceived in 1957 as an extension of the then Waterloo College (now known as Wilfrid Laurier University). It was the college's first Faculty,[7] originally named the Faculty of Science and Engineering of the Waterloo College Associate Faculties. The first class consisted of 74 male engineering students. In October of 1957, the students started their work terms in what was the first co-operative education program in Canada. These students alternated between being in school and working in industry every three months. The program was later changed to a four-month term system, and has been adopted by all of the other University's Faculties in their co-op programs.

In 1959, the "associate faculties" of Waterloo College separated and became the University of Waterloo and the former Faculty of Science and Engineering was renamed the Faculty of Engineering.

On Saturday, May 27, 1961, the Faculty's first engineering graduates were awarded the Master of Applied Science in Electrical Engineering. William Cousins Miller, John Shewchun, Ferenc Takacs, and William Jacob Vetter received their degrees from Professor R. G. Stanton, Chairman, Faculty of Graduate Studies. [8]

In July 2012, Pearl Sullivan became the first woman to hold the position of Dean at the University of Waterloo Engineering. She was one of five women across Canada to head a school of engineering. She held the position until November 2019. [9]

In 2020, Professor Mary Wells was appointed the Dean of Engineering. She was previously a professor in the Faculty's Department of Mechanical and Mechatronics Engineering for 10 years.[10]

In 2021, University of Waterloo's Faculties of Engineering and Math partnered with five Ontario Faculties of Engineering to create the IBET PhD Project, to foster equitable and inclusive research environments to increase the presence of Indigenous and Black academics in STEM. The program has expanded to include 13 academic institutions across Canada and includes IBET Momentum fellowships and academic mentoring to help increase the number of Indigenous and Black academics at Canadian post-secondary institutions. [11] The Faculty hosted its inaugural conference for the fellowship program on October 23 and 24, 2022. [12]

On November 10, 2022, the Engineering Faculty's IDEAS Clinic was renamed the Pearl Sullivan IDEAS Clinic in honour of the Faculty's former Dean who passed away from cancer in 2020.[13]

Waterloo Engineering has one of the highest percentages of women in undergraduate programs in Canada. [14] The Faculty has a Women in Engineering (WiE) group that was established in 1992 to support women and non-binary engineering students and alumni. [15] It also has an on-campus residence living learning community for women in the Faculty of Engineering that is located at the University of Waterloo's United College. [16]

Originally conceived in 2020, the Hive Mind program is run out of Waterloo Engineering Outreach's Women In Engineering program. It offers online and one-on-one tutoring sessions to high school students of all genders in advanced functions, calculus, chemistry, and physics. Since its launch, over 60 percent of Hive participants have been students who identify as female. [72]

Design Days

Hosted at the Pearl Sullivan Engineering IDEAS Clinic, the two-day Design Days event held during orientation week is for all 14 undergraduate programs at Waterloo Engineering. Modelled on the concept of a hackathon, the annual event gives over 2,000 students hands-on learning experiences as they solve open-ended problems.

Waterloo Engineering Heritage Project

In 2022, the Faculty launched Waterloo Engineering's Heritage Project. Led by Dean Mary Wells, the project will feature a collection of recordings made with former deans - including at 2015 interview with Pearl Sullivan - faculty members and others who will share their Waterloo Engineering experiences and perspectives of the past. The recordings will be available on the University's archives site beginning in early 2023.[73][74]

Student life

The Crest of the Waterloo Engineering Society

Many students in the Faculty participate in the University of Waterloo Engineering Society. Due to the co-op nature of the program, the society is split into two sub societies, named "Society A" and "Society B". Each term, one society is in academic term, and the other on a co-op work term. The society in academic term runs events both on and off campus as well as services in the society's office. Its charity events include an annual "Bus Push" where student volunteers raise money by pulling a Grand River Transit bus seven kilometres from campus to Kitchener City Hall. [75]

First-year students receive yellow hard hats during their orientation week symbolizing their adherence of the principles of engineering.

The society's mascot is a 60" (1,524mm) pipe wrench called the TOOL (formerly the RIDGID TOOL). TOOL appears at events organized by the Engineering Society. [76][77]

Engineering students are grouped into classes based on their program. Class sizes never exceed 150 students and vary between disciplines. There are over 100 students for Nanotechnology, Computer, Electrical, Mechanical, Mechatronics, Software and Systems Design Engineering, and smaller class sizes for Chemical, Environmental, Management, Civil and Geological Engineering as well as Architecture. [78]

University of Waterloo Engineering hosts speedfriending events that enable students to interact virtually. [79]

University of Waterloo Engineering students participate in engineering-related competitions. In 2016, a student team won the grand prize at the Hydrogen Education Foundation's 2016 Hydrogen Student Design Contest - a competition between teams from around the globe. [80]

In 2018, a University of Waterloo Engineering student team took first place in the Intercollegiate Rocket Engineering Competition at Spaceport America in New Mexico. [81] In 2019, a team won the Team Sportsmanship award in the same competition. [82]

At the 2020 Canadian Engineering Competition, University of Waterloo Engineering student teams won first place in the Innovative Design category and the Programming challenge. And in 2021, a student team was at the top of the standings in VEX U robotics event operated by the Robotics Education and Competition Foundation. The team was ranked first among 77 teams from around the world. [83]

In 2022, a Waterloo Engineering student won the top prize in the student category of Build the Impossible, an international competition organized to increase visibility around the world to mass timber innovation. [84] And a student team from the University of Waterloo took top prize in the water environment design category at the Water Environment Federation's 2022 Student Design Competition in New Orleans. [85]

Capstone Design

The Capstone Design project allows Waterloo Engineering students to conceptualize and design a project that is related to their discipline. Capstone ideas led to the creation of Athos, BufferBox, the Myo Armband and the Pebble smartwatch. [86]

The Palihapitiya Venture Creation Fund is a gift from Waterloo Engineering alumnus and Social Capital founder Chamath Palihapitiya (shown here) that provides two $50,000 awards to University-selected Capstone Design teams.[87]

The project is supported by industry partners with the following financial awards provided: [88]

  • Adel Sedra Entrepreneurship Award for Capstone Design
  • Baylis Medical Capstone Design Awards
  • Bhattacharya Capstone Design Award
  • Design Analysis Competition Sponsored by ANSYS AIM
  • Engineer of the Future Fund
  • Intellijoint Surgical Capstone Design Award
  • Konrad Capstone Design Award
  • Magna New Mobility Award
  • MTE Consultants Inc. Design Pitch Award for Capstone Design in Environmental and Geological Engineering / Civil Engineering
  • Norman Esch Entrepreneurship Awards for Capstone Design
  • Palihapitiya Venture Creation Fund

WatPD-Engineering (Formerly PDEng)

The PDEng (Professional Development for Engineering Students) began in January 2005 as a series of courses completed by students in the Faculty of Engineering during their coop terms.[89] On May 12, 2010, The Dean of Engineering recommeneded overhauling the program[90] and it was replaced by WatPD-Engineering in the Winter 2011 term.[91]

The WatPD-Engineering program is run by WatPD and is overseen by the WatPD-Engineering Curriculum Committee. Engineering students are required to complete five PD courses, all of which are completed during their work term. Once they have finished their compulsory courses, they must choose three elective courses from those offered in subjects ranging from communications to professionalism and ethics. [92]

Waterloo Cases in Design Engineering

Waterloo Cases in Design Engineering (WCDE) was formed in 2005. [93] It is a group that has developed and implemented over 100 case studies since its inception, using knowledge gained by students during their work terms. [94] The cases demonstrate engineering analysis and design across all engineering disciplines [95] and are used in classrooms at the University of Waterloo Faculty of Engineering and other international universities, as well as at conferences around the world. [96]
