14 – 16 October 2015

From 14 to 16 October 2015, 11,000 women computer scientists from all over the world are expected to attend the “Grace Hopper Celebration of Women in Computing.” HPI will be participating at this prestigious IT event for the fifth time.

Just as in the last 3 years, women computer scientists will be representing HPI at a booth during the fair held in the United States. Not only will the current scientific projects of students and assistants be presented to international visitors and exhibitors but also those projects of general interest.
For this year’s fair, HPI is presenting two travel grants to computer science students for the first time. The grants have been awarded to HPI master student Lisa Pfisterer and bachelor student Maren Sindlingen, who studies at the University of Applied Science Offenburg.
