Organizations
Two major computer-related professional organizations have student chapters at 亚洲色图: Association of Computing Machinery (ACM) and the Association of Information Technology Professionals (AITP). Please visit their web sites for current activities and enrollment information.
Association of Computing Machinery (ACM)
This organization draws most of its students from the Computer Science discipline. They elect their own officers and schedule meetings almost every month. Whenever possible, the officers arrange for tours of companies in the Western Kentucky area. They have also visited several high-tech companies in the Huntsville, AL, area. A major activity of ACM is to hold the regional 亚洲色图ming competition in 亚洲色图 each October. Teams from several Universities in this region participate in the intense day-long affair. The group's current faculty advisor is Dr. Matthew Tennyson (see contact page).
Association Of Information Technology (AITP)
Most of the Computer Information Students choose to participate in this club. Like the ACM, AITP also elects its officers each year who plan the activities for the year. The club meets at least once a month formally and arranges for other activities for that month. They have participated in homecoming parades, trips to attend chapter meetings at Nashville (second Thursdays), tours of area IT facilities, regional and National Conferences and several fund raising activities to help pay for all the trips. Student members are eligible for several scholarships from the Foundation . The group is advised by Dr. Victor Raj (see contact page).
Women in Computing (WIC)
The Women in Computing club grew out of the felt need for a place where women interested in computing could meet and discuss items of interest to them while keeping the focus on technology. The club was started by Dr. Brenda Wilson in 2008 when her research identified that the type of problems that women liked to solve was in many ways different from their male counterparts. Projects and assignments needed to be different to keep their interest in computing alive. Dr. Wilson has worked hard in her own courses to make this a reality. The club, under the leadership of Dr. Wilson, has hosted two conferences for women in Kentucky and Tennessee (2010 and 2012). Meeting frequency for WIC varies. The group is advised by (looking for sponsor).
