About

Graduate Women and Gender Minorities in Computing (GWGMC) is a graduate student organization with the mission of supporting women and gender minorities involved in computing research. To advance this mission, we are planning our first annual GWGMC Research Symposium on March 31, 2023.

​ This event aims to promote and celebrate the research women and gender minorities do at UT Austin in the field of computing in academia and in industry. We will have attendees from multiple departments across campus joining us for a day of networking, sharing research, and showcasing accomplishments of our researchers.
