The Alumni Community ... our past, our future


belltower imageWelcome computer science alumni! Take pride in knowing that you are part of a large and growing community that now totals well over 10,000. Our alumni, spread across all 50 states and countries spread around the world, are innovating technology solutions that are disrupting and revolutionizing every facet of our lives – completely transforming how we live, work and play.

Perhaps your memories include images of punch cards and long lines waiting for computer time.  Or maybe you cherish the memories of an extended counseling session with Joyce Hatch in her second office, Mitch’s Tavern.  Or perhaps you recall championships, not just the basketball variety, but also the academic ones.

Regardless of when you graduated, you are forevermore a part of our family.  As such, we encourage you to remain engaged and involved in the life of the department.  Below are a few ways you can do so.
