Jason Grove’s interests include the use of case studies as a
teaching tool. In 2013, he participated in a training workshop on
the preparation and use of “the case method,” writing and
delivering an environmentally focused case study and other
case study materials for his classes.
This past year, Jason presented at the Canadian Engineering
Education Association conference, speaking on the use of case
studies in engineering. He is also part of the organizaing
committee for the Canadian Society for Chemical Engineering
Conference, with a focus on planning student programs. The
conference will be hosted by Waterloo’s Chemical Engineering
department in October 2014.
Frank Gu was awarded a Tier II Canada Research Chair
(CRC), and is using this position to advance research in
nanotechnology engineering. His CRC program aims to
establish interdisciplinary research, combining functional
polymers and ceramic materials to solve problems in medicine,
agriculture and environmental protection.
On top of work in his lab, Frank teaches a number of under-
graduate courses to Waterloo Engineering’s Nanotechnology
students.
In June 2013, Ray Legge stepped down as Associate Dean of
Graduate Studies and International Agreements for the Engineer-
ing faculty. He assumed the position of Associate Dean of
Graduate Studies for the Waterloo as a whole in July. Ray looks
forward to working with colleagues and meeting the challenges
associated with graduate studies across the campus. He was also
awarded an Outstanding Performance Award from the University
of Waterloo in 2013.
Ray has various research collaboraborations in academia and the
private sector. He participates in research on drinking water
treatment, and protein separation and characterization.
As Associate Chair of Curriculum and Accreditation, Marios
Ioannidis leads the department in improving its undergraduate
curriculum, based on the assessment of student outcomes.
Marios participated in the 10th International Conference on
Nanosciences and Nanotechnologies in 2013, where he
presented research on absorption-driven nanoparticle
self-assembly that was subsequently published in the journal
Langmuir.
He was pleased to see the establishment of Waterloo’s
Student Chapter of the Society of Petroleum Engineers in
2013, a student organization for which he serves as the faculty
advisor.
