Columbia University Women in Computer ScienceOur goal is to bring together the women of computer science in the Columbia University community. We seek to expand the opportunities and successes of women in CS. We hope to encourage prospective computer science majors, and provide direction and assistance to current computer science students. As a network for women undergraduates, graduate students, postdocs, faculty, and staff, the group promotes interaction on academic, social and professional issues.
Grace Hopper Celebration of Women in Computing is an annual conference held by the Anita Borg Institute. Seven WICS members attended the conference with the generous support from our department and Yahoo!. In addition, Joyce Kim and Ivy Deliz were awarded full conference scholarships. Thanks to our sponsors and congratulations to the attendees for being a part of Columbia's GHC cohort!
