Attracting and Retaining Women in Computer Science
Description:
How are different schools attracting and retaining women to their computer science and computer engineering departments. How has BRAID worked at different schools and what is its effectiveness. Guest panelists from Google will discuss why it's important to attract more women into engineering, our success so far, and how we are representing the market of computer science talent. We also are hoping to hear from the audience around obstacles they've encountered at their schools with this issue and learn best practices from our guest panelists.
