The Dean’s Message

As the winter semester draws to a close, there's never been a more opportune moment for students to forge connections with potential employers. Throughout this month, students have engaged in networking opportunities at career fairs, field trips, and industry panel events.

Our classrooms were hubs of industry interaction, with esteemed professionals visiting students as guest speakers, presenters, and recruiters. Industry representatives were at on-campus events where students and alumni received well-deserved recognition for their achievements. Congratulations to Human Resources Management graduate, Symbrit Stapleton, who was honoured with the prestigious BMO Ambition 2025 Annual Award, and to Digital Business Management student, Arina Volkova and her teammates for securing first place in the Health Innovation Challenge 2024. These accomplishments reflect the calibre of excellence that emanates through the Longo Faculty of Business.

Within the classroom, our fashion students have continued to work on innovative projects from virtualizing the Japanese Paper Place Fashion Exhibit Collection to crafting strategic social media campaigns that promote thrifting —a testament to creativity and social consciousness.

The Humber Centre for Entrepreneurship hosted the BMO Launch Me Live Pitch Competition, a platform where top-tier finalists competed for $135,000 in combined prizes. We are proud of the continued achievements made throughout the broader Humber community.
