Acm Ucr

ACM at UCR is the largest student-run technical organization with a focus on computer science. Our goal is to help our members develop their technical and professional skills to help them in school and the tech industry. We aim to accomplish our goal by providing technical workshops, professional events, and many more opportunities for our members to excel. Our vision is simple: We want to improve our members professionally, technically, and personally. We want to help our members grow throughout their college career, whether they enter as a first-year university student or as a transfer student. Every quarter, we focus on improving specific aspects of our members- In the fall, we develop professional resumes, build all-star LinkedIns, and offer workshops on applying effectively at companies from the big 4 to startups- In the winter, we introduce technical pathways ranging from web/app development to security to cloud computing- In the spring, we focus on all the small engineering cruft that is expected knowledge for CS students that classes don't cover: Offline Editing, Source Control, Using APIs, and more. Our target is for UCR to become a premier institution in computer science and engineering. University courses provide a good foundation, but we strive to build upon that. In turn, we supplement the curriculum with workshops tailored to our members and their goals. We do this through an amazing 1:1 mentor program, and constant feedback from our members. More importantly, we want our members to make a positive difference in the world through software. The success of ACM at UCR can only be measured by the success of our members.
