Workgroups & Events
ETIC's Computer Science Task Force began efforts in 2005 to expand the computer science pipeline in Oregon and made high school outreach one of their top agenda items in a broad-based effort to increase the number of Oregon students pursuing computer science education. More recently the ETIC Student Marketing Committee is widening the outreach to all engineering disciplines.
