History

• The university's roots lie in Waterloo College, founded in 1925 as the academic arm of Waterloo Lutheran Seminary and affiliated with the University of Western Ontario, whose president J. Gerald Hagey began the expansion that led to the new institution.学校的根源可追溯至 1925 年成立的滑铁卢学院，它是滑铁卢路德宗教学院神学院的学术延伸，并隶属于西安大略大学，正是后者校长杰拉尔德·哈吉在 1953 年出任滑铁卢学院校长后推动的扩张，催生了今天的新大学。

• Because the Ontario government refused to fund denominational colleges, Hagey followed the model of McMaster University and established Waterloo College Associate Faculties on 4 April 1956 as a non-denominational semi-autonomous body.由于安大略省政府明确不资助宗派学院，哈吉效仿麦克马斯特大学的做法，于 1956 年 4 月 4 日设立了滑铁卢学院联合学部，作为非宗派的半自治机构。

• The first seventy-four students, all studying engineering, entered in July 1957, and the university traces its founding to that intake because co-operative education was built into the curriculum from the start.首批 74 名学生于 1957 年 7 月入学，全部攻读工程专业；学校把创校年定在这一年，正因为合作教育从一开始就写入了课程体系。

• In December 1958 the Chemical Engineering Building, the first structure erected for the new university, was completed, and the same year Ira Needles proposed the classroom-and-industry training scheme that would become the co-operative programme, initially opposed by the Canadian Engineering Institute and the University of Western Ontario.1958 年 12 月，化学工程大楼竣工，这是新大学为自身兴建的第一座建筑；同年，艾拉·尼德尔斯提出了课堂与工业训练相结合的方案，这就是后来的合作教育项目，该设想最初遭到加拿大工程学会与西安大略大学的反对。

• The Ontario Legislature passed the University of Waterloo Act in 1959, detaching the Associate Faculties from Waterloo College and establishing the independent university, and the resulting dispute over the wording of the Act prompted Waterloo College's entire mathematics department, followed by professors of economics, German, modern languages and Russian, to join the new institution.安大略省议会于 1959 年通过《滑铁卢大学法》，使联合学部脱离滑铁卢学院、独立设立大学；法案措辞引发的争议促使滑铁卢学院的整个数学系，以及随后经济、德语、现代语言与俄语系的教授，都转投新大学。

• Because negotiations with Waterloo College ultimately failed, the new university set up its own Faculty of Arts in 1960, and it was at that time that Wes Graham began introducing the most advanced computers to undergraduates, making Waterloo one of the first universities in the world to do so.由于与滑铁卢学院的协商最终破裂，新大学于 1960 年自建文学院；也正是在这一时期，韦斯·格雷厄姆开始把最先进的计算机引入本科教学，使滑铁卢成为世界上最早这样做的大学之一。

• On 1 January 1967 the university created the first Faculty of Mathematics in North America, founded the world's first kinesiology department the same year, and established its first co-operative programme outside engineering, in physics, in 1962.1967 年 1 月 1 日，学校创办了北美第一个数学学院，并于同年设立世界上第一个运动机能学系；早在 1962 年，学校就在物理系开设了第一个工程之外的合作教育项目。

• Its cooperative model was extended to the arts in 1975 with the first co-op stream for economics students, and the William M. Tatham Centre for Cooperative Education and Career Services, which opened in 2003, is the largest building of its kind for cooperative education in Canada.1975 年，合作教育模式首次扩展到人文领域，为经济学学生开设了首个合作项目；2003 年开放的威廉·塔瑟姆合作教育与职业服务中心，是加拿大同类设施中规模最大的建筑。

• The university's governance was formalised by the current University of Waterloo Act on 10 May 1972, and the heraldic achievement that had been in use since October 1961 was formally granted by the Lord Lyon King of Arms in August 1987 and registered with the Canadian Heraldic Authority on 15 February 2001.现行《滑铁卢大学法》于 1972 年 5 月 10 日通过，使学校的治理结构正式确立；自 1961 年 10 月起使用的纹章于 1987 年 8 月获苏格兰高等法院纹章官正式授予，并于 2001 年 2 月 15 日在加拿大纹章局注册。
