About the Conference

Overcoming obstacles of being a minority in the field of computer science

The Oxbridge Women in Computer Science Conference is an annual conference that brings together junior and senior female computer scientists at Oxford and Cambridge, encourages collaboration through formal and informal discussion, and provides a perfect opportunity for young researchers to present their research and get valuable feedback in an open, friendly and informal environment. The conference is free to attend for computer scientists at all UK universities and this year will be held at the University of Cambridge. It will include talks by key speakers from academia who will share their experiences with the participants.

This year's conference has passed. Thank you for attending our conference!
