Michigan Celebration of Women in Computing (MICWIC) is a biennial event that is part of a nationwide effort to increase the meaningful participation of women in the computing profession.
University students, tech educators, and professionals are welcome to join us this October in East Lansing!
MCWT provides scholarships to women who have the interest, aptitude, and potential for a successful career in computer science. A strong network of partner companies and individuals who support a diverse technology industry in Michigan makes this program possible.
Our internship program matches candidates with positions available at MCWT partner companies.
Plug into our session, designed to help college students learn about and apply relevant topics from executives, guest speakers, and participant engagement.
