Women in EECS@UCF Conferences and Workshops

Conferences are a place to meet colleagues, clients, employers, and many other interesting people. The connections made there are far more valuable than the curriculum they offer. It is also a chance to see first hand some cutting edge products, projects, and methodologies you may have read about but haven't gotten the opportunity to work with.

One of the main reasons people attend conferences is for the workshops that are offered to attendees. A workshop is a gathering or training session which may be several days in length. It emphasizes problem-solving, hands-on training, and requires the involvement of the participants. Here you will have the opportunity to gain knowledge, share experiences, and network with people who have similar interests.

Here is a list of engineering/computer science Conferences and Workshops that will be coming up.

Grace Hopper Celebration of Women in Computing

We Build a Better World

Keystone Resort, Colorado
October 1-4, 2008

Participate:

Ph.D. Forum

“The Grace Hopper Celebration of Women in Computing is a series of conferences designed to bring the research and career interests of women in computing to the forefront. Presenters are leaders in their respective fields, representing industrial, academic and government communities. Leading researchers present their current work, while special sessions focus on the role of women in today's technology fields, including computer science, information technology, research and engineering.

Past Grace Hopper Celebrations have resulted in collaborative proposals, networking, mentoring, and increased visibility for the contributions of women in computing.”
