We are thrilled to announce the recipient of this year’s BAS Software Development program award is Class of 2024 graduate James Motherwell.

In addition to maintaining an exemplary grade point average, James served as a lead intern for our department. In this role, he coached and mentored other interns and worked on various software projects.
