Are you a female computer science student or study computing at Carleton? If so, have you heard about the Ontario Celebration of Women in Computing (ONCWIC 2012)? This year the conference is set to take place on October 12 and 13, 2012 in London, Ontario, hosted by the University of Western Ontario.
ONCWIS is modeled after the popular Grace Hopper
Celebration (GHC), which is held annually in the USA. From the ONWIC website, the goal of ONCWIC is to
provide students, faculty and professional women in Ontario
opportunities for networking, sharing and mentoring, similar to those
provided by the GHC. It is hoped that ONCWIC will help build the
computing community within Ontario, with significant benefits to the attendees and their associated organizations.
If you are attending or are interested in attending please let us know! We have opportunities available for attendees to help cover the cost of going to the conference.
