===Gina Cody School of Engineering and Computer Science===
The Gina Cody School of Engineering and [[Computer Science]], formerly known as Faculty of Engineering and Computer Science, is named after Concordia alumna [[Gina Cody]], who donated $15&nbsp;million to the university in 2018. In response, the university renamed its faculty of engineering and computer science in her honour, making it the first engineering school to be named after a woman in Canada and globally.<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.ctvnews.ca/canada/concordia-university-names-engineering-faculty-after-female-graduate-gina-cody-1.4107092|title=Concordia University names engineering faculty after female graduate Gina Cody|date=September 2, 2018|work=CTVNews|access-date=September 26, 2018|language=en-CA}}</ref><ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.theglobeandmail.com/canada/article-concordia-engineering-school-becomes-first-in-canada-named-after-a/|title=Concordia engineering school becomes first in Canada named after a woman as alumna donates $15-million|access-date=September 26, 2018}}</ref><ref>{{Cite news|url=https://globalnews.ca/news/4481045/concordia-university-alumna-donates-15m-faculty-of-engineering-named-after-her/|title=Concordia University alumna donates $15M, faculty of engineering named after her|work=[[Global News]]|access-date=September 26, 2018}}</ref><ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.thestar.com/news/canada/2018/09/24/concordia-universitys-engineering-school-is-first-in-canada-to-be-named-after-a-woman.html|title=Concordia University's engineering school is first in Canada to be named after a woman {{!}} The Star|work=[[Toronto Star]]|access-date=September 26, 2018}}</ref> In 2018, ''[[Maclean's]]'' ranked its programs as one of the best in Canada.<ref>[https://www.macleans.ca/education/canadas-best-university-engineering-programs-2020-rankings/ Best engineering universities in Canada: 2020 ranking] ''Maclean's''</ref> The faculty offers more than 50 undergraduate and graduate-level programs<ref>{{Cite web |title=Programs |url=https://www.concordia.ca/ginacody/about.html |website=concordia.ca}}</ref> in the following departments: Building, Civil and Environmental Engineering; Centre for Engineering in Society; [[Computer Science]] and [[Software engineering|Software Engineering]]; Concordia Institute for Information Systems Engineering; Chemical and Materials Engineering; [[Electrical Engineering|Electrical and Computer Engineering]], and [[Mechanical engineering|Mechanical]], [[Industrial engineering|Industrial]] and [[Aerospace engineering|Aerospace Engineering]].<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.concordia.ca/content/concordia/en/ginacody/about/departments.html|title=Departments|website=concordia.ca}}</ref> The engineering programs are all accredited by the [[Canadian Council of Professional Engineers#Canadian Engineering Accreditation Board|Canadian Engineering Accreditation Board]] (CEAB).<ref name="ENCS">{{cite web |url=http://www.encs.concordia.ca/|title=Homepage |work=Faculty of Engineering and Computer Science |publisher=Concordia University |access-date=May 22, 2012}}</ref> During the 2022-23 academic year, there were 11,848 undergraduate and graduate students enrolled in the faculty.<ref name="Fast facts"/>

'''Troitsky Bridge Building Competition'''
The [[Troitsky Bridge Building Competition]] brings together engineering students from across Canada and parts of the United States. Teams of students representing their universities must build a 1-metre-long bridge using only regular popsicle sticks, [[toothpick]]s, [[dental floss]], and white [[Polyvinyl acetate|glue]]. A panel of judges grades the bridges based on originality and presentation while a hydraulic loading device is used to determine the maximum load and performance.<ref>[https://www.enbeauce.com/actualites/culturel/332056/lequipe-beauceronne-se-distingue-au-troitsky-bridge-building-competition-de-luniversite-concordia L’équipe beauceronne se distingue au Troitsky Bridge Building Competition de l’Université Concordia] ''EnBeauce.com''</ref><ref>[https://troitsky.ca Troitsky 2020] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190123223418/https://troitsky.ca/ |date=January 23, 2019 }} troitsky.ca</ref>
