This term's winners have excellent research proposals, have demonstrated good progress towards their Comp 1 and Comp 2 milestones, have obtained uniformly high grades in their graduate courses, and have established a pattern of excellence both in terms of publication quality and publication venues, all backed up by exceptionally strong letters of reference.
In addition, the following students will be awarded a one-time Graduate Excellence Scholarship in Computer Science in the amount of $5,000. The Graduate Excellence Award in Computer Science, valued at $5,000 per year, is a new scholarship that will be awarded to doctoral students registered full time in the School of Computer Science at the University of Waterloo. Applicants for the Cheriton scholarship are automatically considered for this award.
