Each semester, the College of Computing & Software Engineering hosts a variety of events and initiatives for students to participate in outside of the classroom. To celebrate student engagement, we offer students the ability to track how many CCSE events & opportunities you engage in and award engagement points for your efforts, with prizes and recognition offered at the end of the semester. Points will reset after each fall/spring semester.
