We wish to acknowledge this land on which the University of Toronto operates. For thousands of years it has been the traditional land of the Huron-Wendat, the Seneca, and the Mississaugas of the Credit. Today, this meeting place is still the home to many Indigenous people from across Turtle Island and we are grateful to have the opportunity to work on this land.

Graduates with Honours

Graduates with High Honours

Note 1.11a: Students are normally eligible to be considered for Honours standing only if they are carrying a full academic load (2.5 credits per session, excluding extra courses) and if the session is not being repeated. During fourth year, a student may reduce their course load in either semester (but not both) and still be eligible for Honours standing, provided the other conditions are met.

Note 1.11b: The results for the most recent 3 terms (2020 Winter, 2020 Fall and 2021 Winter) reflect various impacts due to COVID-19 adaptations. Moving all classes to online formats necessitated adjustments both to specific assignments and to overall grad-ing schemes. For 2020 Winter only, students were permitted to apply a Credit or No Credit (CR/NCR) option, rather than a percentage grade, to any of their courses, or even to drop a failed course, after seeing their final grades. Sessional grades used to determine hon-our status were calculated using only those courses that students chose to have recorded as a percentage grade. A minimum of 4 such percentage grades were required to be considered for the Dean’s Honour List. For the 2020–2021 academic year, the CR/NCR option was discontinued, but the extended Late Withdrawal option was retained. Provision was also made for part-time students to achieve Dean’s Honour List standing.

Note 2.1: Applications and offers include those received between May and April of the listed academic year. Registrations are shown as of November 1. Selectivity = offers ÷ applications and represents the proportion of applicants who were offered admission. Yield = registration ÷ offers. Domestic students are defined as citizens (living in Canada or abroad) or permanent residents of Canada. Students who have fast-tracked from MASc programs into PhD programs are counted in these figures as applications, offers and admissions.

Figure 2.3b Full-Time Equivalent Graduate Student-to-Faculty Ratios by Academic Area and Degree Type, 2020–2021

Note 2.3b: Some students in BME are supervised by faculty members from the Faculties of Medicine and Dentistry and affiliated hos-pitals, as well as from other departments within U of T Engineering. Because the ratio includes only faculty with a budgetary appoint-ment in BME, comparisons with other Engineering departments are not possible. For that reason, this figure shows BME in a visually distinct way. In cases of inter-departmental supervision within the Faculty, PhD and MASc students are assigned 100% to their primary supervisor’s department.

Note 2.3c: Students on PEY Co-op are not included in this count.

The following figures indicate the median time to completion for graduating cohorts in each master’s and doctoral degree program by academic area for the past decade. Time to graduation represents the length of time between a student’s initial enrolment in a graduate program and meeting all the requirements for graduation. The data only includes terms in which a student is registered, excluding leaves, lapses and (in most cases) the term in which convocation occurs. Where a student is fast-tracked from the MASc into a PhD, the total time for both programs is counted. Distinguishing full-time, extended full-time and part-time MEng students provides greater clarity.

Figure 3.16 Summary of Progress Against the Recommendations of Striving Toward Black Inclusivity (2019) as prepared by the Black Inclusion Steering Committee (BISC), 2021

Interim Recommendations (From November 2018)

Description Progress

Establish an Equity, Diversity & Inclusion (EDI) office

A new role of Assistant Dean and Director, Diversity, Inclusion and Professionalism (AD-DIP) was established in 2019.

In 2020-2021, the Office for Diversity, Inclusion and Professionalism (DIP) added a number of casual staff roles to develop EDI projects and initiatives within the Faculty. This included hiring the President of the National Society of Black Engineers U of T chapter to develop Black inclusivity initiatives centred around mentorship.

Collect race-based data

Led by the Dean’s Advisor on Black Inclusivity Initiatives, a working group consisting of members of the Engineering Equity, Diversity and Inclusion Action Group (EEDIAG and the Registrar’s Office created the Engineering Applicant Census (EAC), an optional demographic survey that applicants to the Faculty’s undergraduate programs can fill which allow the Faculty to create a demographic profile of the applicants.

The pilot of the EAC was implemented for the 2020-2021 application cycle. The data is not shared with the admissions committee, but instead will be used by the Registrar’s Office to understand potential barriers in the engagement and admission process for different communities.

Acknowledge and support Black History Month (BHM)

In collaboration with Engineering Strategic Communications, BHM communications campaigns were developed and executed in 2019, 2020 and 2021. The BHM 2021 campaign included increased emphasis on the Black woman experience within the Faculty.

Enhance and streamline communication to advertise and build inclusivity efforts

The EDI webpage, including a joint statement by the Dean and the Engineering Society President on “Our Shared Values of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusivity” launched in 2018.

In January 2021, U of T Engineering launched a webpage and form to allow community members to make a confidential disclosure of an incident of bias, discrimination, harassment or harmful unprofessionalism. This portal was publicized on the main Faculty website and in the Faculty & Staff Newsletter.

Have Black representation at departmental and Faculty seminar/lecture series

The co-chairs of BISC brought a proposal to display scholarship of Black academics via departmental seminar or lecture series to the monthly Chairs and Directors meeting in March 2019.

Departments/institutes such as ISTEP have brought in Black academics to speak on their research. However, no changes to current processes to facilitate intentional diversification have yet been implemented.

In 2021, the University of Toronto Anti-Black Racism Task Force also recommended a lecture series to provide a platform for Black excellence in research.

50 Community

Have targeted Black undergraduate student recruitment

In the summer of 2020, the Engineering Outreach office launched Blueprint, a four-week summer program for highly motivated Black students in Grades 9 to 12. Blueprint built on the success of other outreach programs, such as ENGage, which has run for more than a decade.

More than 50 students joined Blueprint, which was held online due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Engagement with the students who identified as being in Grade 12 continued during the 2020-2021 academic school year. Five of these students received offers of admission to U of T (four in Engineering, one in Arts & Science) to begin undergraduate studies in the 2021 – 2022 academic year.

The Recruitment Office has continued to collaborate closely with NSBE U of T on increasing visibility of the Black student community and creating connections for prospective students, including dedicated student panels, and representation in clubs, fairs and open houses. In addition, Recruitment has also provided admissions presentations and promotion for NSBE outreach efforts such as the High School Conference and NSBE Hacks.

Data made possible by the Engineering Applicant Census (EAC) further enabled the creation of Black Student Community Welcome events to celebrate Black admitted students and facilitate connections to the U of T Engineering community.

Increase involvement at the NSBE National Convention

U of T Engineering had strong representation at the NSBE Region 1 and national conferences in 2018 and 2019.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, U of T Engineering’s sponsorship of the 2020 NSBE National Convention was transferred to the 2021 Convention which undergraduate and graduate recruiters attended virtually.

Additional Recommendations (From September 2019)

Prospective and Current Undergraduate Students

Continual review of broad-based admission goals and procedures to further enhance the equitable and inclusive nature of general admissions

BISC highlighted key questions that the admissions committee should consider with regard to reviewing and updating admission procedures through an equitable lens.

No changes to current processes have yet been implemented.

Develop alternative, gap-spanning admission and/or access pathways into U of T Engineering

While no direct changes to current processes have yet been implemented, modules for an online Preparing for University Math Program (PUMP) have been developed by math instructors from both U of T Engineering and the Faculty of Arts & Science, in collaboration with the EdTech office.

This program could serve as a component of future access pathway programming.

Develop a centralized peer mentorship initiative

The successful Engineering Campus Experience Officer (Eng CEO) program, with mentors representing a wide range of disciplines, years of study, racial and gender diversity, continued into a third year.

In addition, the Office for Diversity, Inclusion and Professionalism (DIP) hired a student-staff member to consult on building specific Black mentorship opportunities within the Faculty, in collaboration with the Assistant Dean, Director of Diversity, Inclusion and Professionalism and the Advancement Office.

Create infrastructure to increase faculty engagement in Outreach

BISC suggested the Office of the Vice-Dean, Research, the Office of the Vice-President, Research and the Engineering Student Outreach Office should collaborate to develop a framework and resource that all faculty members interested in or required to develop outreach programming can and should use.

No changes to current processes have yet been implemented.

Increase access to financial aid and scholarships

U of T Engineering has increased its efforts with prospective donors and alumni interested in providing funding for initiatives and awards.

In 2020–2021, Advancement reached a gift agreement with CGI, an IT consulting company, to fund the CGI Scholarship for the Advancement of Black Women in Engineering.

Continue to develop targeted recruitment strategies

The Office of the Vice-Dean, Graduate continues to be involved with NSBE conferences and events for recruitment purposes including the NSBE National Convention and more recently the NSBE U of T Hackathon (NSBEHacks).

The Graduate Research Days 2021 recruitment event continued to allow for graduate applicants to optionally self-declare their racial/ethnic identity for targeted outreach.

In January 2021, U of T Engineering joined with six other Ontario Engineering Faculties to create the Indigenous and Black Engineering & Technology (IBET) Momentum Fellowships. U of T Engineering is allocated two of these fellowships, which provide $25,000 per year for up to four years for incoming Black or Indigenous PhD students. The first recipients were announced in May 2021.

Additional Recommendations (From September 2019)

Prospective and Current Faculty

Intentional utilization of Provost Office diversity-driven initiatives

In June 2020 a new faculty member who self-identifies as Black was hired to teach within the Engineering Science program, becoming the Faculty’s only self-identified Black professor.

A second faculty member who self-identifies as Black is set to join the Department of Chemical Engineering & Applied Chemistry in the fall of 2021, leveraging the Provost’s new faculty funding program.

BISC recommends that other departments and divisions follow this model.

Develop a framework to facilitate diverse candidate pool formulation and consideration

BISC recommends that departments/institutes follow the Office of the Vice-Provost, Faculty & Academic Life document Strategies for Recruiting an Excellent & Diverse Faculty Complement: A guide for enhancing the diversity of applicant pools and minimizing the impact of unconscious bias in assessing candidates.

While no formal mechanisms are in place, the Dean’s Advisor on Black Inclusivity Initiatives has noted efforts toward inclusive and holistic hiring practices are being implemented at a departmental level.

Define the means to value and incentivize EDI and mentoring work for faculty

No changes to current processes have been implemented.

Prospective and Current Staff

Develop avenues for formal mentorship

No changes to current processes have been implemented.

Provide opportunities for affinity group community building

Engineering Positive Space exists as a de facto affinity group for the 2SLGBTQ+ community within the Faculty at all levels (students, staff, faculty).

No Faculty-centred affinity groups/gatherings for Black community members or other identities are in place.

Improve access to secondment and professional development opportunities

No changes to current processes have yet been implemented with regard to targeted communication to underrepresented staff highlighting opportunities and supports.

Project Description Progress

EngX - Industry Partnerships Concierge Program

This new facility, to be located on the ground floor of 88 College Street, is designed to catalyze partnerships between external organizations and U of T Engineering.

A conceptual pre-design study has been carried out, providing a 'best-fit' accommodation solution and a rough order-of-magnitude cost estimate for the renovations that would be needed.

Sustainability Research Laboratory (S-Lab)

Located on the roof of the Wallberg building, S-Lab will feature 340 72-cell monocrystalline panels and advanced environmental sensors to accelerate research and training around cross-disciplinary sustainability issues.

In March 2021, Governing Council’s Executive Committee granted Cycle #4 Governance approval. The project has been tendered and construction is expected to start in the summer of 2021, with occupancy set for the of 2022.

Experiential Learning Commons

A new joint collaborative career centre, located on the third and fourth floors of 255 Beverly Street, will include accommodations for the Engineering Career Centre, as well as career support programs from the Faculty of Arts & Science and the Employer Relations Team from central Student Services. It will house programs such as the Professional Experience Year (PEY) Co-op Program as well as new work experience offerings focused on graduate students.

In May 2021, the project received Cycle #5 Governance approval. The general contractor is mobilizing on site in July 2021, with completion expected for the late spring of 2022.

Adjustable Multi-dimensional (AMD) Loading System & Upgrade of Structural Testing Facility

Revitalization of the Structural Testing Facility, located in the Department of Civil & Mineral Engineering, will include the installation of an adjustable multi-dimensional (AMD) experimental loading facility.

Funding for the project from the Canada Foundation for Innovation was announced in March 2021. A feasibility study, supported by the Dean’s Strategic Fund, was delivered in June 2021. Future work includes the boring of holes for hydro-geological work, and the integration of the Feasibility Study cost estimate into the University's Total Project Cost (TPC) context and framework.

Gull Lake Survey Camp Bunkhouse

This new facility will house up to 96 people and includes a washroom and shower facility, common room, and new septic system.

Despite delays due to the COVID-19 pandemic and weather, construction of the buildings and installation of the sewage treatment system are slated for completion by July 2021.

Engineering & Computer Science Library Renovation

The renovated spaces will include several new elements, including group study rooms, a classroom, windows and carpet tile, as well as improved ventilation and refreshed spaces on both floors.

This project was nearing completion as of summer 2021.
