We don’t see gaming as a obstacle to learning. With an ever increasing amount of programs and majors relevant to the video game and esports industries, we welcome the brimming passion of our students as an opportunity to enrich student life and one’s studies. We at Tespa Carleton are devoted to fostering a community where gaming is celebrated by people of all ages, recognized as a force for good, and used to connect gamers on and off campus. We achieve this goal by hosting high-quality events, building competitive esports teams, and creating opportunities for our members to develop skills and connect with industry professionals. Tespa Carleton is not only the largest student-run organization at Carleton University, but also the largest esports organization in Ottawa. We are a leader and driving force in Ottawa's gaming communities, competitive or otherwise.
