Une décennie de changements The last 10 years have seen the Faculty of Engineering become a more diversified engineering and computer science powerhouse.

Deux plans d’action successifs (2006-2011 et 2011-2016) articulés autour des plans stratégiques Vision 2010 et Destination 2020 de l’Université d’Ottawa ont permis à la Faculté de génie de devenir le leader incontesté au niveau de deux objectifs institutionnels clés : l’intensification des études aux cycles supérieurs et l’internationalisation.

In 2016, the Faculty of Engineering translates into: More than 10,000 requests for admission; more than 1,600 entering students; total student enrolment in excess of 5,000, including 1,600 at the graduate level and close to 2,000 international students; 1,000 degrees conferred; $100M in annual operating and research revenues.

Un regard vers l’avenir Opportunities and challenges • En 2016 encore, les femmes demeurent largement sous-représentées en ingénierie et en informatique. Notre faculté a été à l’avant-garde de plusieurs efforts visant à corriger cette situation, notamment par l’entremise du programme de Chaires pour les femmes en génie et en sciences du CRSNG. Compte tenu que les femmes représentent le plus grand potentiel de croissance des effectifs étudiants domestiques, nous devons miser sur ces atouts et redoubler nos efforts.

• Because of the rapid growth that our faculty has experienced since 2008, the resources available are no longer sufficient in a number of areas: Physical space; support personnel; full-time, teaching-intensive professors. Corrective measures are urgently needed.

• For a number of years now, unit (i.e. per student) operating expenditures have increased at a faster rate than unit revenues with a resulting need for continual growth in student enrolment. This is not compatible with our objective to improve the quality of the university experience of our students and innovative solutions are urgently required at both the revenues (e.g. philanthropy, for-profit continuing education and professional development) and expenditures levels.

• Favoriser l’émergence d’une culture entrepreneuriale et intrapreneuriale à tous les niveaux, en plus de s’occuper de l’amélioration et de l’intensification de la formation de nos étudiants en conception sont pour nous une priorité. C’est ainsi que ces éléments de différenciation permettront à notre faculté de continuer à se distinguer.
