This panel is designed to inspire womENcourage attendees by showing them the broad range of career options that they have with a computer science (CS) degree. We expect to broaden the attendees? horizons when thinking about future jobs by having a panel composed of successful and inspiring panelists, who have either chosen an unusual career path or who have found a very interesting field to focus on. The panelists will be coming both from academia and industry to bring different perspectives to the panel. Students often think that a degree in computer science opens the door to programming and other IT jobs, but rarely know about the whole range of options that is available to them. We expect that this panel will inspire students and other attendees to seek their own path in the career, keeping in mind the exciting opportunities that exist and that they can work toward.
