Celebrating Excellence and Leadership

Wednesday, March 20, 2024

Last evening, we celebrated our brilliant Science students from years one to four for their excellence and leadership in our vibrant academic community. It was a night filled with inspiring presentations, delicious food, and recognition of over 150 awards and leadership positions held by our undergraduate students. Students, faculty, and staff mingled and networked after the event, fostering new connections and friendships.
