Queen’s Graduate Computing Society Conference

The Queen’s Graduate Computing Society Conference (QGCSC) was held annually by the Graduate Computing Society as a way to promote sharing and collaboration within the School of Computing, and by inviting speakers from outside of the school to speak to students about their research and career opportunities.

The QGCSC has now been replaced by CSearch, the Computing Student Research Conference, which is hosted by the School of Computing.
