The Alan Shepard Residency is District 3's flagship 12-week paid experience for Concordia students, placing multidisciplinary teams directly with real Montreal organizations to solve real challenges, not case studies. Engineers sit beside filmmakers, economists beside musicians, learning to speak each other's language while tackling mandates that demand real, tangible results.

Celebrating its 10th anniversary, this year’s edition embraces the theme “10 × 10 = 100: Journeys of …Transformation”, highlighting a decade of student-led innovation and the many paths through which ideas evolve into meaningful impact.

This year’s vernissage offers an opportunity to discover the projects developed by the 2026 cohort, meet the student residents, and explore how experiential learning continues to shape the next generation of innovators at Concordia.

How can you participate? Join us in person by filling out the Eventbrite or online by registering for the Zoom Meeting or watching live on YouTube.
