Welcome to the Oakland University ACM-W Student Chapter!
We are an academic student organization at Oakland University, MI, USA, which serves mostly to women in the Computer Science program (and related areas) at the university, for both Undergraduate and Graduate levels. We are advocated to expand knowledge, to promote and encourage women participation in technology, and to provide resources and help to women and minorities in the computing field.
The chapter's mission is to celebrate, inform and support women in computing, and work with the ACM-W community of computer scientists, educators, employers and policy makers to improve working and learning environments for women. This includes promoting activities that result in more equal representation of women in CS such as mentoring or role modeling; monitoring the status of women in industrial and academic computing through the gathering of statistics; providing historical information about women's accomplishments and roles in CS; and serving as a repository of information about programs, documents and policies of concern to women in CS. Through international and local activities and chapters, educational outreach, recognition of leading women in CS, cooperation with other organizations, and the dissemination of information via newsletters, blogs, and reports, ACM-W promotes the growth and development of women seeking to attain careers in computing.
We encourage you to check out the different contents on the website, in order to know a little bit more about us and what we do.
If you are interested in being part of the group, please send us a request. Any comments are highly welcome and much appreciated.
