IEEE Computer Society Broadening Participation Committee

Learn more about the Broadening Participation Committee, its mission, and its members.

The Broadening Participation Committee fosters an environment in which all individuals are encouraged to participate and engage in Society activities and programs without regard to gender, race, age, national origin, sexual affiliation, gender identity, gender expression, affiliation, and other demographic factors. The Committee coordinates and promotes activities across the Society that further the mission to serve and engage underrepresented groups in computer science and engineering and recommends new initiatives to broaden participation in the Society.

The Chair of the Broadening Participation Committee is elected annually by the Committee membership, which consists of eight members with staggered two-year terms appointed by the President.
