Student Organizations and Teams
Association for Computing Machinery (ACM)
The Association for Computing Machinery is the professional organization for computer scientists. Our student chapter sponsors guest speakers, programming contests and game nights; organizes Open House activities; and holds open tutoring sessions for computer science courses. They also host the annual Hack K-State hackathon that is open to both high school and college students.
Diversity in Computing
Diversity in Computing supports and celebrates diversity in computing by hosting social events that allow students to interact with other technical students, network with professionals and scholars in computing fields, participate in volunteer activities and more.
Cyber Defense Club
Club members develop their cyber defense skills by hacking or counter-hacking in simulated network environments. Opportunities also arise to meet guest researchers from other universities and to compete in national cybersecurity competitions.
Mobile Development Club
Club members develop software for mobile devices such as tablets and phones.
Web Development Club
Club members practice building and maintaining websites and other web-based software. People often come to club meetings looking for advice with current projects or as a place to start learning the basics. Members make connections, learn from each other and build their skills along the way.
Game Development Club
Club members work in interdisciplinary teams to develop computer games. The club also sponsors presentations on game programming and development, demonstrates their games at K-State Open House and hosts game jams.
K-State Artificial Intelligence Club (ACM SIGAI)
The Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) Special Interest Group (SIG), on Artificial Intelligence collaborates with several research faculties across K-state that use AI in their research. We work with machine learning, autonomous robots, data science, game AI and other related branches of AI. We invite guest speakers, discuss trends in AI and have workshops on programming.
Computer Science Graduate Student Association
CS-GSA is group for graduate students in the computer science department who want to build more of a community, as well as promote academic, professional and social development of computer science graduate students.
