What We Do

Workshops:

The club hosts workshops on cybersecurity topics throughout the semester. We aim to give members a competitive edge through introductory and hands-on experiences within cybersecurity. These workshops are open to anyone and can cover a range of topics from Android Hacking to the inner workings of power plants.

Women in CyberSecurity:

One of our goals as a student chapter of WiCyS is to assist in the recruitment, retention, and advancement of women in cybersecurity. We aim to achieve this through uplifting the voices of our women members, promoting female role models within cybersecurity and encouraging student participation in WiCyS events like the annual WiCyS conference.

Connecting with Industry:

Our members go on to competitive internships and full-time employment with technology companies, governmental agencies and research laboratories. They pay this forward by returning to share their experiences with fellow chapter members.
