About Systems Design Engineering

Systems Design Engineering is a unique interdisciplinary engineering program at the University of Waterloo that explores problem solving through a systems-thinking methodology. Our class, the class of 2025, has had a first term experience unlike any other as all of our courses were taught online due to the pandemic. We hope that this class profile will reflect some of the different perspectives that our class may hold, and that you as the user will take something away from exploring the site.

Preface

The objective of this website was to better understand the histories of the students in the Systems Design Engineering (SYDE) class of 2025, as well as understanding the personalities of the students. This was also an opportunity to display and test our skills in design, data science, frontend development, and team collaboration. 94 students in our first year class responded to this survey. The data from each question is displayed throughout the website. This is an iterative project that we are committed to working on for the entirety of our degree, so we look forward to seeing how it progresses over time!
