Sam is a fourth-year University of Waterloo Faculty of Engineering student. In his blog, he explains how he arranged his own job in California and highlights the importance of making the right connections on co–op. "Communicate your value. Everyone has skills; everyone can uniquely contribute to the team they're applying for. You just need to be able to show your value."

Daily trivia 33: Our PhD students can customize their learning experience by developing a "learning contract" that specifies courses and research topics they will study. This allows for flexibility for interdisciplinary programs like our Systems Science. https://lnkd.in/dYEJr8CM

This summer, IMAP is funding two of the Boston University Institute for Global Sustainability summer fellows – and they’re off to a great start! Adham Badawy will be looking at how to use treated wastewater for irrigation in drought-stricken areas, using the novel concept of a “wastewatershed.” This information will help IMAP's investor audience better mitigate against climate-induced water security risks within their portfolios. Brian Sousa will enhance IMAP’s Corporate Carbon Risk project with his research to integrate health impacts and water consumption alongside the cost and emission-reduction potential of utility-scale renewable energy projects. https://lnkd.in/eB_4rk_9 #ClimateChange #Emissions #wastewater #carbon

--Bryant University Jacob Drive-- Project Complete ✔️ When you’ve got a tight summer deadline and a sprawling campus to work with, precision and speed are absolutely key. This summer, our team, led by Mike C., took on Bryant University’s Jacob Drive with a clear mission: make it happen, and make it fast - and fast, we did. We tackled the challenge of running conduits from the top of campus all the way to the street, setting handholes at every pole location as we went. But that wasn’t all 📸 —we also installed two exterior enclosures for campus camera equipment, making sure the university’s security infrastructure is as strong as ever. Chris and Sam knocked it out of the park by prepping the poles off-site, and with Jeff coordinating deliveries, the entire load was on-site in just one day. With everything completed on time, Bryant University couldn’t be happier with the outcome. Another fast-paced win for the Energy Electric team, keeping our clients happy and ready for whatever’s next! Ready to start your next project?

Delft University of Technology will move towards establishing a full-fledged Campus The Hague. We started this mission three years ago with a strategic exploration to answer the question: how can we - as an engineering school - assume our social responsibility toward public policy? Societal grand challenges heavily rely on engineering but engineering knowledge and engineers are often (too) far away from the actual decision-making. Our answer: by thinking about engineering research, teaching, and impact in an integrated and transdisciplinary fashion. In the coming years, in addition to our MSc Engineering & Policy Analysis, we will be developing two new MSc engineering programs at our Campus, The Hague. These programs are geared toward responding to societal challenges with respect to digitalization, safety & security, climate change, and energy transition. These programs are essentially transdisciplinary; that is, interdisciplinary in nature and in close collaboration with our crucial stakeholders in public policy. We will further expand our Climate Safety & Security research center and develop an Academy for Public Professionals at our Campus The Hague. I would like to acknowledge the great team behind these successes: Marcel van der Klaauw, Haiko Van Der Voort, Cynthia Liem, Jennifer Kockx, Jing (Norah) Chu, Eveline Vreede, Ivo Kostons, Vasileia Vassou, Wijnie Prosman, Elizabeth Blokland, Godard Kloos, Lilian Hellemons and many more.

🎉 Celebrating the First Cohort of Queen’s Engineering Bridge Pathway Students! ONCAT joins Queen’s University in celebrating the inaugural cohort of students in the Smith Engineering Bridge pathway, who have successfully transitioned from a diploma to a degree program and joined their peers in the Smith Engineering Faculty. The bridging pathway is a route for graduates of an advanced diploma in Engineering Technology to transfer into an upper year of the degree program offered by Stephen J. R. Smith Faculty of Engineering and Applied Science at Queen's University. This pathway is a faster and more cost-effective route to becoming a professional engineer in Ontario, in comparison to completing a standalone degree after college. The development of the Smith Engineering Bridge pathway was funded by ONCAT and showcases the university’s commitment to enhancing opportunities for skills development, education-to-employment pathways, and inclusivity in competitive industries and programs.
