On March 17th, twenty high school women from Western Washington were honored at UW CSE with Awards for Aspirations in Computing from NCWIT, the National Center for Women & Information Technology. Lucy Sanders, CEO and Co-founder of NCWIT, joined in the ceremony.
The NCWIT Award for Aspirations in Computing honors young women at the high school level for their computing-related achievements and interests. Awardees are selected for their computing and IT aptitude, leadership ability, academic history, and plans for post-secondary education.
Congratulations to the award recipients, their parents, and their teachers. We hope to see you as UW CSE students soon!
