University of Waterloo Students Win Facebook's Hackathon
For the last year I've been aware of the impact of Waterloo in tech and have conducted some research into why this might be so. Two things I've discovered:1. Academic staff own any IP resulting from their research, making it very attractive and easy to recruit top academics. Almost all other universities assume ownership of IP.2. An intern program that requires students to take an internship every other semester, enabling students to gain valuable experience within top-tier tech companies.It would be great to hear of any other reasons for their success.
