About Us

The University of Waterloo Steel Bridge Design Team is a collection of students passionate about the engineering design process. The team provides students the opportunity to apply knowledge learned in both the classroom and the workplace to a unique design challenge. Students also gain hands-on experiences with all stages of structural steel design, from design to fabrication and ultimately construction of the bridge structure.

​

At the University of Waterloo, students of the Faculty of Engineering participate in a cooperative (coop) program, which exposes them to the real world before graduation. Coop/school cycles are every four months, which forces our team to be split up into two streams. These streams, A-Society and B-Society, allow the team to run for the full length of the year, but with an added communication and continuity challenge.
