Indiana Celebration of Women in Computing
Feb. 10 to 11
McCormick's Creek State Park, Spencer, Ind
The Indiana Celebration of Women in Computing conference is a low-cost, regionally tailored, small conference for women in computing. The celebration is a more intimate version of the Grace Hopper Celebration of Women in Computing and shares the same philosophy, supportive environment and goals. The conference will discuss cutting-edge technical issues and social issues of relevance to undergraduate and graduate women in computing, and provide creative social opportunities to meet faculty members, students and area industry leaders.
