Women in computer science

Wednesday, August 8th, 2007

I was checking my Google Alerts today, and came across an interesting article from the New York Times.  It appears computer science industries are looking for more women to enter the field. 

 “They [computer science industry] are concerned about this trend, they say, not just because they want to see young women share the field’s challenges and rewards, but also because they regard the relative absence of women as a troubling indicator for American computer science generally — and for the economic competitiveness that depends on it.”

So common ladies–the industry is calling and NIU has an excellent opportunity for you waiting in Rockford.  Check out the B.S. in Computer Science degree and discover what NIU and RVC have to offer.
