Software Engineering Team Earns 2nd Place in Ontario Programming Competition, Advances to National Stage

We are proud to share outstanding news for our Software Engineering (SE) program!

A team of four SE students has secured 2nd place in the Programming Competition among all Ontario universities — an exceptional achievement that highlights the strength, talent, and dedication within our program.

As a result of their impressive performance, the team will go on to represent Ontario at the Canadian Engineering Competition, taking place on the weekend of March 20 at the Université de Sherbrooke in Quebec. Competing at the national level is a remarkable accomplishment and a testament to their hard work and technical excellence.

The students, pictured from left to right, are:

Adding to this milestone, all four students will be graduating this year — making this achievement an especially meaningful way to conclude their undergraduate journey.

Please join us in congratulating Brian, Noah, Ashna, and Angus on this incredible accomplishment. We wish them the very best as they prepare to compete on the national stage and as they move forward into the next chapter of their careers!
