On Friday June 24 at 2:00 p.m., the first graduates of the Bachelor of Cognitive Science degree will receive their diplomas. The B.Cog.Sc. is a new designation for the degree (formerly a B.A.) which better captures the interdisciplinary nature of Cognitive Science. Eleven students will graduate from the program at this convocation.
This is a special convocation for the program for another reason. Stephen Jones will receive a Governor General’s Medal for his outstanding academic achievement. Steve had a 12.0 GPA in his four years at Carleton. He will also receive the very first Medal for the B.Cog.Sc. program. Steve’s specialization was in Cognition and Psychology. Steve will be pursing a Master of Clinical Science degree in audiology at Western University in the fall.

But there is more! Four other students will receive Senate Medals for their outstanding academic records: Kensi Dickinson, Leah MacQuarrie, Tomasz Grodzinski, and Michelle Sappong.
We also congratulate the three students who are receiving their Ph.D. degrees: David Leibovitz, Crystal Blais (Villeneuve), and Sarra Ghazel. One student will receive a Master of Cognitive Science degrees – Tabish Ismail.
The faculty and staff of the Institute extend their congratulations to our excellent students.
