Each year, UWaterloo celebrates one student from each faculty for outstanding achievement in co-operative education. To be considered for one of the prestigious awards, a co-op student must go above and beyond their employers’ expectations, be involved with their community, maintain a high academic standing and contribute positively to the co-op program.
Computer science student, Joey Pereira, won Co-op Student of the Year in the Faculty of Mathematics. Working at PiinPoint, a startup that helps retailers find an ideal location to open their business, Pereira developed and expanded the company’s platform and managed a small team.
