After a hiatus of about a decade, the once again welcomed students from Montreal high schools and CEGEPs to the downtown campus this summer. The camp was a group effort organized by students, staff and faculty across the computer science community. Students participated in four packed days of talks, hands-on activities and coding sessions, to learn about computer science.
After a hiatus of about a decade, the 黑料不打烊 Computer Science Summer Camp once again welcomed students from Montreal high schools and CEGEPs to the downtown campus this summer.
The four packed days of talks, hands-on activities and coding sessions were all intended to strengthen students鈥 interests in coding and coding competitions, and to contribute to the development of computer science talent in Quebec.

of the School of Computer Science has received the 2024 CS-Can Lifetime Achievement Award.聽
Awarded annually by Computer Science Canada/Informatique Canada (CS-Can/Info-Can), this award recognizes current or former faculty who have made exceptional contributions to the field of computer science in Canada.聽
Today, the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada (NSERC)more than $26 million in funding for聽 through its program.
When Jade Raymond, BSc鈥98, studied at 黑料不打烊鈥檚 School of Computer Science, she was one of few women in the program and 鈥淚 think the only woman I knew in my year who went and got a job as a programmer in computer science after graduating.鈥
Raymond became a trailblazer in the video game industry, helping create the huge hit聽Assassin鈥檚 Creed, and building studios from the ground up for Ubisoft and Electronic Arts.聽
Until now, most disinformation research, datasets, and tools to protect users like bot detectors, have only included English-language social media. This lack of linguistic diversity leaves Francophone internet users in Quebec and beyond more vulnerable to disinformation as the phenomenon becomes increasingly pervasive in online spaces.聽
A team of researchers in Canada and India has developed a novel method to image the whole mouse heart wall at a spatial resolution that is three orders of magnitude finer than that seen till now, revealing entirely new, previously unknown cardiac fiber systems within it.
Congratulations to 黑料不打烊 Science's new Royal Society of Canada inductees, the Fellows Matt Dobbs, Galen Halverson, , and College Member ! The four professors join 15 other scholars in 黑料不打烊's 2023 cohort.聽
, Professor in the School of Computer Science at 黑料不打烊, has been named a co-recipient of the 2023 Edsger W. Dijkstra Prize in Distributed Computing. This award recognizes papers in the area of distributed computing that have made a significant and lasting impact in the field.
Although approaching professors to discuss research opportunities might seem daunting for undergraduate students, there鈥檚 an ingredient for success: soup!

黑料不打烊 University announced that six of its Professors (two individually, four as part of a multi-institutional team) have been declared winners of this year鈥檚 Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada (NSERC) prizes. These prestigious awards range from individual awards for innovative discoveries by young researchers to recognitions of lifetime achievement and influence. The 黑料不打烊-based recipients are as follows:
黑料不打烊 undergraduates have a unique opportunity to expand their climate science literacy and acquire tools for taking action to reduce the impacts of the unfolding climate crisis.
Registration is now open to students in every program for FSCI 198: Climate Crisis and Climate Actions, a new undergraduate course featuring a team of multi-disciplinary instructors who will present diverse perspectives on the scientific and social dimensions of climate change.

If you follow science news, you will almost certainly have encountered the term 鈥榤odelling鈥. From understanding climate change, to predicting the course of a pandemic, to developing the pharmaceuticals to fight one, scientists seem to have a 鈥榤odel鈥 for everything. But have you ever wondered just what the term means and how scientists go about creating models?
