Our goal is to create an environment where people can meet other women and non-binary students interested in Computer Science and support each other, share ideas of opportunities involving CS, and offer advice on how to excel in the courses and field of Computer Science. Our mission is to provide opportunities for professional and social development in the CS field through workshops, fun events, and community. We also want to fund and offer women in the field of computer science the opportunity to attend educational and professional conferences. We also hope to provide mentorship and support for women entering this field in order to provide a sense of community. We hope that this group will serve as an informational and social network of individuals interested in computer science.
