University of Waterloo Faculty of Mathematics

This building includes a plethora of offices, along with various lecture halls and meeting rooms.

This building now houses the Department of Statistics and Actuarial Science and a large lecture hall.

Specialized degrees exist for the Software Engineering program (the BSE, or Bachelor of Software Engineering) and Computing and Financial Management (BCFM, or Bachelor of Computing and Financial Management).

Postgraduate students are generally awarded an MMath (Master of Mathematics) or PhD.

A yearly tradition at the University of Waterloo, a group of senior math students volunteer for the position of Tie Guard each year, and are selected by the University of Waterloo Federation of Students representatives from the Faculty of Mathematics.

It is expected that the appointed Tie Guard volunteers will be on hand 24 hours a day for the duration of the orientation week, to guard the Faculty's mascot (a 40-foot pink tie which hangs off the side of the building) and to provide first aid and information to incoming students.
