A memorial service will be held at the University of ݮƵ on October 5 to remember who graduated from management engineering in 2017.
Everson, 26, died suddenly at the Ottawa Army Run on September 22.
A cross-appointed ݮƵ Engineering professor and three graduate students helped develop a new tool to create more effective, personalized games and marketing campaigns.
Lennart Nacke, a professor of systems design engineering and at the David R. Cheriton School of Computer Science, among other roles, was part of a multidisciplinary research team led by Gustavo Tondello, now an instructional support coordinator at the school, as part of his research for a PhD in computer science.
Nadine Ibrahim, the first Turkstra Chair in Urban Engineering, is preparing students at ݮƵ Engineering to be the municipal leaders of tomorrow by learning from a network of faculty, industry professionals and global experts through unique coursework and extracurriculars.
“My vision is to make ݮƵ a hub where urban experts come together,” said Ibrahim, a lecturer in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering. “Our future cities need urban engineers who collaborate with others in the face of ground-breaking, complex challenges.”
Each year, the Faculty of Engineering, with the assistance of the Sandford Fleming Foundation, honours faculty members for their outstanding commitment to excellence in engineering education.
The following statement was issued by James Rush, Vice-President, Academic and Provost at the University of ݮƵ:
I am writing to announce that Pearl Sullivan, dean of the Faculty of Engineering, will step down from her role on December 31, 2019 to focus her energy on major initiatives for the University and the Faculty.
Two startup companies that began as Capstone Design projects at ݮƵ Engineering won $50,000 each in direct equity investments at a Velocity pitch contest this week.
and were among four winners as the Velocity Fund Pitch Competition, part of the flagship entrepreneurship program at the University of ݮƵ, went on the road to downtown Toronto for the first time in its history.
Four professors at ݮƵ Engineering were recently awarded $570,000 in provincial funding to build their research teams and pay for research-related infrastructure.
A second-year ݮƵ Engineering student shared the top prize at a recent hackathon focused on the creation of technology to protect privacy.
Lena Nguyen of systems design engineering teamed up with Anne Chung, a second-year computer science student at the University of ݮƵ, to develop software that puts browsers on kids mode by disabling web page fields asking for sensitive information such as addresses and credit card numbers.
A new kind of imaging technology invented at ݮƵ Engineering could tell cancer doctors exactly where to cut during surgery to remove tumors.
That would eliminate secondary surgeries to get malignant tissue that was missed the first time, which happens in about 10 per cent of all cancer cases that involve tumors.
Talented young creators from around the world are coming together at the University of ݮƵ this weekend for the sixth annual event.
The largest hackathon in Canada and one of the largest in North America with 1,500 participants this year, the free student-run event gets crucial support from the Faculty of Engineering and is based in the three newest engineering buildings.
