Haley Le Attends Women in Computer Science Program at Michigan Tech

2013 Jul 18

Haley Le of Sterling Heights took part in a weeklong exploration of computer science recently on the campus of Michigan Technological University.

Women in Computer Science (WICS) is a competitive scholarship program for young women interested in computing. Participants experienced hands-on demonstrations in many different areas of computing, including programming, artificial intelligence, robotics, virtual reality, visualization, networks, and security.

Participants got to hear firsthand accounts of diverse careers in computing from current computer science students, alumni, and industry role models.

The young women also got a chance to experience college life by staying in a residence hall, exploring campus, and meeting others with similar backgrounds and interests.

Michigan Technological University is a leading public research university developing new technologies and preparing students to create the future for a prosperous and sustainable world. Michigan Tech offers more than 130 undergraduate and graduate degree programs in engineering; forest resources; computing; technology; business; economics; natural, physical and environmental sciences; arts; humanities; and social sciences.
