HONOURING THEIR LEGACY: THE ADVANCED COMPUTER ENGINEERING SCHOOL (ACES) HALL OF FAME

The Advanced Computer Engineering School Hall of Fame along with its parent patrons recognize those Georgians that have made a substantial commitment to our subject discipline. First conferred in 2006, the Hard Hat is awarded to those graduating ACES that have invested three years of study within our School. We are particularly proud of those students who incorporate challenging and rewarding study in our area after graduation. Software ACES with names in UPPERCASE earned a score of 5 on each of the APCS exams written.

ACES are particularly proud when one of their own is chosen by the College as their Schulich Leader Scholar. For three years running, ('22, '23, & '24) RSGC's choice has been from within our ACES ranks.
