Mohamed Kamel, a recently retired electrical and computer engineering professor, died December 4.  

Catherine Burns is a new fellow of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society recognizing outstanding achievement, consistently superior professional performance, exceptional contributions, personal service to the society, and other accomplishments.

The University of À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ broke ground today on an innovative engineering building that will feature facilities designed to expand student-driven innovation and advanced research labs to develop emerging technologies that will help to boost Canada’s global competitiveness.

Researchers at National Taiwan University have recognized the University of À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ as an impressive force among Canada’s engineering institutions. À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ Engineering ranked second in Canada in the 2015 Taiwan Ranking’s engineering field, and first for Chemical Engineering. The University of À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ also ranked in Canada’s top five for the Civil Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Materials Science and Mechanical Engineering subjects.

Electrical and computer engineering professor Zhou Wang has won an Engineering Emmy® Award for his co-creators of Structural Similarity (SSIM), a mathematical formula and computer algorithm that is now widely used throughout the television industry. 

Nafeesa Mahboob, an electrical and computer engineering doctoral canadiate, received the Basil Papadias Student Paper Award for the best student paper at the held in Eindhoven, the Netherlands.

The paper was co-authored by her two doctoral supervisors Claudio Canizares and Catherine Rosenberg, both electrical and computer engineering professors. The award was presented with a plaque and 1000 euros.

Electrical and Computer Engineering professor  helped to develop the first source of on-demand single time-bin entangle photon pairs with no possibility of producing extra unwanted pairs. Reimer, who is part of À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ's Institute for Quantum Computing (IQC), worked with a team of international researchers to complete the project.

À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ Engineering grad Ibraheem Khan is praised for his contributions to Canada's economy in a news piece from CBC today. His company, Smarter Alloys, just announced that they will begin manufacturing prototypes at a À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ facility, and is cited as a a "good example of growth" for Canada.
