ACM (Association for Computing Machinery) |
|
ACM is an international
scientific and educational organization dedicated to advancing the art,
science, engineering, and application of information technology, serving both
professional and public interests by fostering the open interchange of
information and by promoting the highest professional and ethical standards.
The ACM at CSUF provides a continuing forum for the exchange of ideas and
announcements for all the students on campus that share an interest in the
diversified aspects of computing. Activities include field trips, programming
contests, workshops, symposiums, games and tournaments.
The ACM is a student-run organization and its activities are open to all
interested students. The club is successful only to the extent that
students support it and participate in its activities. We encourage you to get
involved!
For information on the club, you are welcome to drop by the office in room
CS-209, call (714) 278-7165, or send email to acm@ecs.fullerton.edu. In
addition, ACM operates a home page at http://www.acm-csuf.org.

Some of the activities and benefits of being a member include: field trips to
major companies and research facilities, seminars by guest speakers from
industry and academic organizations, share information about graduate schools
(for M.S. or Ph.D. degree programs), share knowledge and techniques among
members, develop close relationships with faculty members for research and
projects, meet with other outstanding computer science students from our own
university and from other universities, and much more. For more detail
information about UPE, please visit at http://www.o-upe.com.
Every member will receive the membership certificate, carat-clad key pin, and a
free one-year ACM student membership (current ACM members receive a one-year

Society of Mexican American Engineers and Scientists(MAES) |
|
The purpose of this organization is to promote the professional and personal
development of the Mexican American's pursuing degrees in engineering and
science. MAES is not meant to be affiliated with political issues rather
individuals expressing their own personal views. The California State
University, Fullerton Student Chapter of MAES welcomes student membership from
all ethnicities for the purpose of increasing the number of Latino youth that
enter and complete engineering, computer science, physics, chemistry, biology,
and mathematics degree programs. The CSUF student chapter of MAES is extremely
committed to high standards of professionalism and academic achievement in
engineering and science. This is achieved by providing scholarship and tutoring
information, networking and establishing professional contacts, and fostering
leadership skills. In addition, MAES provides a Mexican American cultural
atmosphere to enhance self-awareness, individual attention, and unity while
expanding the involvement and interaction of its members. The application of
these personal and professional skills is combined to prepare MAES members for
success.
