Workshop in Computer Science for Young Women




The CEMC Workshop in Computer Science for Young Women exists to encourage young women, and people of other under-represented genders,* who are considering computer science as a career for the first time. It is a unique opportunity designed to ignite enthusiasm for computer science in interested students from across Canada who have had little or no previous exposure to computer science. Attendees learn that computer science is about much more than using and programming computers.

Intended Audience

We welcome applicants who are female or another gender identity under-represented in computer science*. Applicants must be in grade 9 and 10, have an interest in mathematics, and currently attend a Canadian high school or middle school. Participants should not have attended any similiar workshop.

Dates and Location

Saturday, May 12 to Saturday May 19, 2018 at the University of Waterloo, Waterloo, Ontario.

Cost

There is a $150 registration fee, including applicable taxes, to be paid after invited applicants have received their confirmation package.
  • Accommodations, meals and other expenses for the week are included at no extra cost.
