Clubs & Organizations for Computer Science and Engineering Students
ACM
The Wright State Student Chapter of the Association for Computing Machinery
(ACM) is composed of undergraduate and graduate students with interests in all
aspects of computers and information processing. The Student Chapter sponsors
events such as lectures by distinguish speakers, site visits to technology
companies. Club members have the opportunity to participate in the ACM
International Collegiate Programming Contest and the ACM Student Research
Competition.
IEEE-CS
IEEE Computer Society's vision is to be the leading provider of technical
information and services to the world's computing professionals. The society is
dedicated to advancing the theory, practice, and application of computer and
information processing technology. Through its conferences, applications-related
and research-oriented journals, local and student chapters, technical
committees, and standards working groups, the Society promotes an active
exchange of information, ideas, and technological innovation among its members.
Both IEEE-CS and ACM clubs can be viewed at: http://www.cs.wright.edu/~csclubs/.
Society of Women Engineers
The Society of Women Engineers SWE is the largest non-profit educational and
service organization representing both student and professional women in
engineering and technical fields. SWE encourages women to achieve their fullest
potential in careers as engineers and technology leaders.
The WSU branch of SWE (http://www.cs.wright.edu/~swe/) aims
to expand the image of the engineering profession while demonstrating the value
of diversity. Activities include regular meetings to which all members of the
College, particularly female engineering and computer science students, are
invited. Each meeting has a corporate sponsor whose engineers facilitate the
discussions.
College Women in Computing Club
The College Women in Computing Club is currently forming in the Computer Science
and Engineering Department. The clubs' goals include: encouraging the success of
all female students pursuing degrees in computer related fields by providing
mentorship and social support to each other, to advocate the growth of women in
technology related fields through visits to local area middle and high school
and to provide access to successful women working in business and academia for
leadership and support. Please contact the CS/CEG department in 303 Russ Center
or call 775-5131 for information
