Participate!

Picture
We invite female  students involved in computing at all levels of study (undergraduate and graduate students), faculty, as well as professionals from Ontario to actively participate in ONCWIC 2012.

Call for Posters

The goal of the poster session is to enable informal discussions on each presenter's research or computing project. Poster presentations foster the sharing of ideas, problems, and results in an informal setting. Posters are an excellent way to convey results and ideas that are not yet complete, or ready to be published in a paper. We encourage posters on computing-related research, or outreach activities to promote ICT to youth. Works at any level of study, including undergraduate projects/summer projects etc. are encouraged.
