Purdue Computer Society Callout
The Purdue University Computer Society is a
student chapter of the national IEEE Computer
Society. Our goals are to spread knowledge about
computer engineering and technology, to get
students involved in outside of class engineering
projects, and to provide computing resources to
students and student organizations. Every year,
the Computer Society is involved with organizing
events related to the fields of computer science
and engineering.
