A final draft of the self-study will be submitted to the Vice-Provost, Academic Programs on September 30, 2023. This document is a key element in the external review process and will be provided to the external review team that will visit our Faculty on December 4-6, 2023.
The review team members are:
- Nora de Leeuw, Executive Dean, Faculty of Engineering and Physical Sciences, Leeds University
- Jim A. Nicell, Dean, Faculty of Engineering McGill University

The provostial review is a critical element of the University’s commitment to quality assurance, providing an unparalleled opportunity to secure the expert advice of leaders in the field concerning academic and administrative issues, assess our performance against leading
international institutions, and receive guidance on key strategic directions. Your engagement is of paramount importance as the review process will lead to the development of our next Academic Plan.
I would like to extend my gratitude to the self-study working group, faculty members, the decanal leadership team, staff, graduate and undergraduate students, graduate student
associations, the Engineering Society, and alumni for their roles in the consultation process. Your contributions have enabled us to prepare this comprehensive draft.
Thank you, all, for your participation. I look forward to updating you with the review visit scheduled in December.
