Engagement & Outreach


 

Engagement Is Essential

 

Engaging with faculty and students from various disciplines brings in different ways of thinking, which enriches problem-solving. Computing often intersects with fields like biology, engineering, social sciences, humanities, and the arts. These interactions drive innovation and allow students to address real-world, complex challenges with comprehensive approaches. Strong engagement with industry partners, alumni, and the community creates a feedback loop to inform our course offerings, skills development and knowledge that is most relevant in the job market. This ensures that the curriculum remains dynamic and that students are well-prepared for the workforce.
