Maplesoft announced that James (Jim) Cooper, its president and CEO, has received an honorary doctorate from the University of Waterloo (UW). The University presented Cooper with a Doctor of Engineering degree at a recent graduation ceremony held at the university.

Dr. Joaquin Carrasco, Professor of Control Systems at the University’s School of Electrical and Electronic Engineering, has taught various Control Systems courses to Master’s students in the Master of Science in Advanced Control and Systems Engineering program for the past six years. He has received overwhelmingly positive student feedback from using Maple T.A., the powerful online testing and assessment system from Maplesoft, in his Control Systems classes. He has also recently incorporated Maplesoft’s MapleSim and the MapleSim CAD Toolbox into his Robotics courses. With the MapleSim CAD Toolbox, students can see how their mechanical CAD models behave as part of a larger, multidomain system.

Maplesoft and the University of Waterloo have partnered to collaborate on educational STEM content. Through this partnership, Maplesoft’s Möbius will blend with Waterloo-developed coursework and content for an online learning hub for college-level students and professors.

Maplesoft today announced that the 2017 Maplesoft Excellence Scholarship Awards are being presented to two graduate students from the University of Birmingham. The scholarships provide monetary assistance for three years to each student for their graduate studies. They were selected from a group of students that were instrumental in encouraging and contributing to the use of technology in various undergraduate courses at the university.
