Community Overview

The Department of Computer Science sponsors and organizes a number of community initiatives to encourage students to discover and explore Computer Science and technology. By giving back to the community, we hope to contribute to the development and growth of technology in Saskatchewan.

Our outreach initiatives range from hands-on workshops to fully credited advancement programs, with a wide target audience of elementary, high school and university students, as well as industry. For more information on how to attend or volunteer at any of these events, please contact our Outreach Coordinator.
