Alumni Involvement

  • 30th Anniversary - in 2005 we will be celebrating 30 years of computer science education at Ole Miss. We are looking for ideas for an event that will bring our alumni back to share in this celebration. Please email us with your suggestions (football game, banquet, alumni weekend, etc).
  • Alumni Guest Lecturer - alumni can come back and share their experience and expertise with our students. Please contact Dr. Conrad Cunningham, the chair of CIS, if you are interested.
  • Engineering Career Fair - each year the School of Engineering hosts two career fairs. We hope your company will attend and hire Ole Miss graduates from CIS and other departments. For more information, please contact Jonathan Harrington with the Ole Miss Career Center.
  • Financial Support, - please consider joining the Woods Order to help us keep our computers, equipment, and classrooms up-to-date. We hope to have 30 new Woods Order members supporting computer science by the end of our 30th Anniversary year in 2005.
