Dean’s leadership earns renewed term in Faculty of Engineering
By Lindsay Charlton
Walking through the atrium of the Centre for Engineering Innovation this past year, passersby may have noticed posters reading “Go Bill Go!” and “Two-Term Dean” in support of Bill Van Heyst, dean of the Faculty of Engineering, ahead of his renewal process.
The University of Windsor has since confirmed that Van Heyst will continue to lead the faculty through a second term, effective Sept. 1.
UWindsor professor recognized for decades of IEEE leadership and service
By Lindsay Charlton
Technology that improves lives depends not only on innovation, but on the people who mentor future engineers, build professional networks and help connect research to real-world needs.
That commitment to advancing technology for the public good has earned University of Windsor engineering professor Mohammed Khalid the 2026 M.B. Broughton Central Canada Merit Award from IEEE Canada, the Canadian arm of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE).
‘I just started running alongside it’: University of Windsor engineering team’s aircraft takes flight for the first time at national competition

After spending 20 hours on the road to Fort Worth, Texas, the Lancer Aero Design team watched months of hard work take flight as the aircraft they built soared into the sky for the first time.
“It was amazing,” said Tony Woo, team president. “When we saw it take off, there’s this rule that you’re not allowed to run on the runway, but I was so excited I just started running alongside it. You could visibly see my excitement.”
