ITE University of Waterloo

The University of Waterloo ITE (UW ITE) student chapter was established in 1974 and was one of the first student chapters in the Canadian District. The main objective of our student chapter is to attract students to the profession of transportation engineering and keep our members updated about the existing opportunities in both industry and academia.

The activities of our student chapter include holding academic seminars, guest lecturers, social events, organizing technical tours and visits, etc. The academic seminars and guest lecturers are in different transportation areas, e.g. traffic engineering, road safety, ITS, pavement, winter maintenance, and planning.

We also participate within the broader transportation community through projects such as the ITE data collection grants for conducting parking and trip generation surveys, traffic bowl, ITE section luncheons, student competitions and Transportation Talk newsletter. UW ITE is active in exposing undergraduate students to transportation engineering through seminar talks to students. The UW ITE student chapter is proud of our continued energetic activities over the years that enhance students’ knowledge in the field of transportation engineering.
