Bruce MacVicar an Associate Professor in the Civil and Environmental Engineering department speaks with CTV News about the recent flooding in Bracebridge and New Brunswick. See the full interview .
Ric Soulis, a longtime À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ civil and environmental engineering professor, died June 21 after a brief illness.
Born in Toronto in 1949, Ric was raised in Kitchener where he attended Eastwood Collegiate Institute. He received his BASc in civil engineering in 1972 from the University of À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ and then attended Memorial University of Newfoundland.
is Canada’s first artificial intelligence company for the water sector, and co-founded and jointly run by CEE and other UW students.
We are pleased to announce that at the CSCE (Canadian Society of Civil Engineers) Annual Congress in London, ON last week, the Capstone project team representing the University of À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ’s Civil and Environmental Engineering (CEE) Department came in 3rd place nationally!
Earlier in the year, our undergraduate student chapter produced an annual report for the CSCE (Canadian Society of Civil Engineers) and amidst fierce competition, their report took home one of the coveted awards!
The CSCE Student Affairs Committee evaluated final annual reports (2015-2016) from 24 schools and awarded À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ the Most Improved Student Chapter.
The competition was very keen with many outstanding reports, but the committee was extremely impressed with the professionalism and the quality of our report.
This year's Capstone Design posters stepped it up a notch with projects ranging from technology that reduces agricultural water waste, through intelligent irrigation systems, to a roller coaster that would thrill even the toughest adrenalin junkie.
Dr. Robert McKillop, known affectionately as "Bob" to students and colleagues alike, has been awarded the Distinguished Teacher 2016 Award.
The next big innovation to hit the marketplace could be among the À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ student projects on display at the annual Capstone Design symposia beginning March 16.Â
Senior-year engineering students at À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ will exhibit projects ranging from a technology that reduces agricultural water waste through intelligent irrigation systems to a device that may help people with Parkinson`s disease avoid falls.
Last August, the University of À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ (B2P) team sent six undergraduate students and an engineer to Chimore, Bolivia for three weeks, to build a 90 meter span pedestrian footbridge.Â
