We strive to cultivate a warm, open-minded, diverse, and inclusive community of techies dedicated to supporting and encouraging women in the field of computer science.

Within this community, we seek to expand the opportunities of women to explore all aspects of the technological world and to encourage them to create a positive impact on it.

 

We are McWiCS - McGill Women in Computer Science,
