The department would like to congratulate Carrie Demmans Epp who is the winner of the 2010 Best Graduate Student Award. This award is given annually to a student in the Department of Computer Science who has demonstrated outstanding academic performance and shown exceptional citizenship by contributing to the research, teaching, social and intellectual affairs of the department. Accepting the award on Carrie's behalf was Julita Vassileva (pictured above) -- a member of Carrie's advisory committee.
Carrie graduated with a Master's degree and was supervised by Dr. Gord McCalla. Carrie is currently pursuing doctoral studies at the University of Toronto.
Congratulations, Carrie!

The Department of Computer Science Professional Internship Program allows undergraduate students to obtain 12 or 16 months of practical "on-the-job" experience with a sponsoring company prior to completing the final year of their undergraduate degree program. The existence of a formally recognized internship program offers significant benefits to the students, to the industrial sponsors, to the department, and to the university as a whole. These benefits include: practical training and work experience for the students; technology transfer, productive work contribution, and prospective employee evaluation for the employer; and increased university-industry interaction for the department and the university. We are now accepting applications from companies and students interested in partcipating in the program. Interns will be placed in May/Sept 2013.
