A few interesting facts about the competition
The 2023/24 was the ninth year of the Governor's Challenge competition. About 25 teams of undergraduate students from Canadian universities compete every year. The 海角社区 participated eight times, starting from the second tournament. The 海角社区 team was the finalist in this prestigious competition six times. UofA was the National Champion twice, in 2021 and 2023. The Bank of Canada hired eight of our undergraduate students who participated in the Governor's Challenge. Four of them are currently employed by the Bank of Canada. Keep up the great work UofA Economics!
