Call for Submissions

ACM NYCWiC 2025

Join us for the 2025 edition of NYCWiC, the ACM New York Celebration of Women in Computing, which will be held April 11-12, 2025. NYCWiC’s mission is to promote the academic, social, and professional growth of technical women in the State of New York.

We invite presentation proposals in the following subject categories:

  • Research: academic research efforts, completed or in progress.

  • Others: any topics relevant to the conference’s mission, e.g., student organization efforts, community outreach, career development, etc.

Each presentation can take one of the following forms:

  • Poster: printed poster and a one-minute elevator pitch; ideal for academic work in progress.

  • Talk: 20-minute oral presentation with additional time for discussion; ideal for more mature academic work.

  • Panel: 60-minute group discussion; ideal for broad-interest topics.

  • Workshop: 60-minute design to teach a useful skill; ideal for career development and technical-knowledge topics.

Submissions take the form of abstracts of no more than 500 words.

Submissions are open to all but student posters and talks are especially welcome, from first-time presenters even more so. Prizes will be awarded to the best student posters.

If you have questions, would like to propose a different kind of activity or session, or volunteer to help with the organization or running of NYCWiC, please contact nycwic@googlegroups.com.
