Since 2016, we have held a regular workshop series on Python in data science for professional clients. We can also hold custom workshops on other specialized
topics; please contact cs-info@memphis.edu for more information.
As an official chapter of , we have organized several free workshops to introduce girls ages 10-18 to coding.
These workshops have covered various topics including Scratch, App Inventor, HTML/CSS,
JavaScript, Python, and Java. Workshops have been hosted at a number of different
locations, including the UofM, Christian Brothers University, St. Mary's Episcopal
School, and Hutchison School.
Our faculty and students have helped teach several pre-college computer science courses
with Memphis nonprofit . Funded collaborations have included the TigerCrew project, which involved having
UofM undergraduates teach computer science using the Unity 3D game engine. TigerCrew
was funded with an $18,500 Strengthening Communities grant from the UofM School of Urban Affairs and Public Policy.
We have hosted numerous visits from pre-college students, and we have sent UofM faculty/student
representatives to speak at a number of local schools. Please contact cs-info@memphis.edu to arrange a visit.
