The DC IT Student Expo, presented by Brock Board of Trade, is an annual hallmark event where graduating students showcase their final projects.
This opportunity allows students to demonstrate the skills and abilities gained through their Durham College program while also gaining valuable communication and networking skills.
Each student has their own booth where they present project material and demonstrations and share the details of their project including technology choices, implementation challenges and intended value to potential stakeholders.
The event concludes with awards presented to best-in-class projects, as well as a best-in-show choice decided on by a panel of guest judges.
