Submitted on Monday, April 22, 2024

The Faculty of Information proudly partnered with the 2024 Seneca Housing Hackathon. Seventeen of our talented students participated, with over half advancing to the finals.

MI student Cindy Cao and team members from Seneca Polytechnic took on the housing tech challenge and earned third place among 150 finalists with their design for LeaseLens, an online platform that allows landlords and tenants to collaborate on rental agreements.

MI student Yahui (Yancy) Liu played a key role in organizing the event as Stakeholder and Student Experience Consultant, while Assistant Professor Velian Pandeliev served as a guest speaker, mentor and judge.
