A note from the Organizing Committee
A welcome message from the Dean
The Ontario Engineering Competition 2002 is finally upon us.
Welcome to the University of Ottawa and the 22nd Ontario
Engineering Competition!
It looks like the level of competition at the 22nd annual OEC – CIO
will be both challenging and rewarding. This year’s competition
boasts over 180 competitors from ten (10) universities and 40
competitors from ten (10) high schools.
Only a handful of venues like the OEC – CIO will offer you the
chance to compete against and interact with the best of the best.
Professionals from industry, government and academia will witness
your hard work and success. Let us not forget about the networking
opportunity of a lifetime. At the OEC – CIO, you are given the chance
to showcase your talents to Ontario’s finest in the Engineering
community.
Past competitors will attest to the fact that the Ontario Engineering
Competition was one of the best experiences of their university
career.
OEC brings together many of the best and the brightest engineering
students across Ontario to show what engineering is really about:
innovation, teamwork and responsibility towards society. You should
all be very proud of yourselves, as participants, organizers, judges or
sponsors. As participants, you will make it happen. As organizers,
you invested many long hours in what will remain with you as an
unrivalled learning experience. As judges and sponsors, your
generosity with your time and contributions make this experience
possible. To all those who helped bring about this incredible
showcase of engineering.. a big thank you!
T. Aboulnasr, Ph.D., FEIC, P.Eng.
Dean of Engineering, University of Ottawa
Our organizing committee wishes to thank you for all of your hard
work and preparation required to compete and wish you the best of
luck… both at the OEC – CIO 2002 and beyond.

Head Judge – Meredyth Brown, Budd
Friday, February 22nd, 2002:
Goal
The goal of the Explanatory Communications Category is to
encourage undergraduate engineering students to present a
complicated technical process or issue in terms that a person outside
of their discipline can understand. Often, engineers must explain
highly specialized subjects to people with different educational
backgrounds such as management, other professionals, or the
general public. In this category, competitors must thoroughly yet
clearly explain a technical subject to an audience not specializing in
their field. Winning entries will combine thorough research, a
complete and clear explanation, and a dynamic presentation.
Time
7:30 PM
Awards
The Ontario Society of Professional Engineers Award and a $2,000
cash prize will be awarded to the first place team. Cash prizes of

teams respectively.
Judging
The most important aspects of evaluation in this category are depth
of understanding of the topic, delivery of a complete and clear
explanation, effective communication, and the quality of the
presentation. The depth of the team's understanding of the topic will
be assessed during the question period. The marking scheme for the

Goal
The goal of the Parliamentary Debate Category is to encourage
undergraduate engineering students to present a well-reasoned
viewpoint with a minimum of preparation time. Engineers are often
required to evaluate and argue for or against a proposal on short
notice. In this category, competitors defend or refute a previously
undisclosed resolution using the format of parliamentary style
debate.
Awards
The Silver Tongue Award and a $1,500 cash prize, jointly sponsored
by the Sandford Fleming Foundation and Consulting Engineers of
Ontario, will be awarded to the winner of the final debate and a cash
prize of $1,000 will be awarded to the runner up. A cash prize of
$500 each will be awarded to the two debate finalists eliminated after
the semi-final round.
Judging
The most important aspects of evaluation in this category are
argument and evidence, refutation, organization and analysis,
delivery, and ingenuity and wit. Particular attention is given to the
summaries presented at the end of the debate. Each speaker on the
team is graded out of a total of fifty (50) points for a combined
maximum total of one hundred (100) points. In the event of a tie, the
debate is awarded to the Government. The team scores will remain
confidential. The marking scheme for the Parliamentary Debate

The goal of the High School Competition is to encourage high school
students to gain exposure to engineers, engineering students, and
attend the Ontario Engineering Competition. This competition is a
simplified version of Team Design that challenges high school
students to produce a feasible design despite limited materials and
