The CZEBS members published extensively in refereed journals and in conferences. Two of their papers at eSim received best paper awards (see list below) - presented by graduate students Hachem and Vasan. The group is supervising/cosupervising nearly 30 graduate students, many of whom have received prestigious scholarships such as NSERC, FQRNT and ASHRAE as well as best paper and other awards (ACFAS, ASHRAE etc).
During the last year approximately 10 students graduated (4 PhD, 6 MASc); they obtained positions in Universities (e.g. Liam O’Brien – Assistant Prof. Carleton), as researchers at NRCan (e.g. Jose Candanedo) or industry. Dr. Athienitis became a Fellow of the Canadian Academy of Engineering and also received the ADRIQ-NSERC “Celebrate Partnerships” award for the impact of the work of the SBRN.

The CZEBS members published extensively in refereed journals and in conferences. Two of their papers at eSim received best paper awards (see list below) - presented by graduate students Hachem and Vasan. The group is supervising/cosupervising nearly 30 graduate students, many of whom have received prestigious scholarships such as NSERC, FQRNT and ASHRAE as well as best paper and other awards (ACFAS, ASHRAE etc).
During the last year approximately 10 students graduated (4 PhD, 6 MASc); they obtained positions in Universities (e.g. Liam O’Brien – Assistant Prof. Carleton), as researchers at NRCan (e.g. Jose Candanedo) or industry. Dr. Athienitis became a Fellow of the Canadian Academy of Engineering and also received the ADRIQ-NSERC “Celebrate Partnerships” award for the impact of the work of the SBRN.
