It also helps students build their professional skills, such as resume building, and hosts speaker events to facilitate networking with cloud professionals. The main goal is to inform students about cloud computing careers and teach them the necessary skills to pursue them.
Rutgers Women in Computer Science (WiCS) provides a community in which women feel empowered to create with code. Our network connects female undergraduates to a social community, professional opportunities and each other. Throughout our mentorship program and community discussions, we are able to foster a sense of belonging and solidarity, creating a strong sisterhood for Rutgers women in tech.

RUSLUG is the Student Linux User Group (SLUG); an organization on campus focused on promoting the use and continued development of free and open-source software (FOSS) but invites any type of computer enthusiast to participate. This includes developers, system administrators, and tinkers. We emphasize that openness, sustainability, and security should be concerns of developers in how they distribute their software. In contrast to many other computing clubs on campus, SLUG gives much attention to hobbyist, historical, and other non-strictly commercial uses for computers. For more info visit https://ruslug.org
RUMAD is the Mobile App Development Club at Rutgers. Our goal is to empower the Rutgers community by exploring and instructing on application development through our two programs: the Accelerator and the Incubator. Additionally, we strive to position our members for success in their software engineering careers through recruitment events, resume reviews, and more. Each fall, we mentor a group of students to start and complete projects involving both frontend and backend development in our Accelerator Program. The Incubator Program, which runs in the spring, gives mentees the opportunity to develop, market, and present a complete project while receiving direct mentorship and career advice from our senior mentors.
