Women in Computer Science (WCS) is a non-profit, educational, student group under the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign Computer Science Department. The organization is dedicated to supporting the efforts of young women, who are pursuing a career in computer science or show an overall interest in technology. Because of the number of women pursuing Computer Science has been steadily decreasing, the organization aims to retain and provide a network of support for members to rely on for advice and camaraderie.
