Description: Computer Science Outreach and Community Engagement
The Office for Women in Engineering, Recruitment, Civic Engagement and K-12 Outreach and the Department of Computer Science and Engineering at Michigan State University are committed to empowering the next generation of leaders in technology through K-12 outreach.
We aim to broaden participation in computer science among K-12 students in Michigan and beyond. By engaging K-12 students in face-to-face and virtual programs led by near-peer university student mentors, we aim to build excitement across the rapidly growing fields of information technology, data science and software engineering.
In particular, we aim to remove the many barriers to entry in computer science which disproportionately affect female- and LGBTQIA+-identifying, Black, Latinx, Native American and socioeconomically underprivileged individuals.
