With diverse divisions spanning Media, Projects, Research, Development, Education, Industry, Community, and HackUTD, you are sure to find your place among us.
Divisions
ACM at UT Dallas is a dynamic organization comprising eight specialized divisions and a dedicated team of over 100 officers. Each division plays a unique role in fostering innovation and engagement, yet we are united by a common mission: to enhance and support the computing community at UT Dallas.
ACM Development mainly focuses on maintaining web applications and infrastructures used by ACM to interact with its members such as Member Portal and UTD Grades.
ACM Research is an undergraduate-only research initiative that introduces students to the world of research, equipping them with the skills, resources, and mentorship necessary to formulate nuanced ideas and prepare them for possible future publications. Our goal is to guide you through the holistic research process, starting with the generation of engaging research questions and ending at the presentation of findings to industry and academic professionals in a symposium format.
ACM Projects is a semester-long guided projects initiative for those new to software development, teaching collaborative tools, new technologies, and core development principles complimentary to curriculum.
ACM Education runs the Technical Interview Prep (TIP) program, the Mentor program, as well as organizing workshops throughout the semester.
ACM Media is the lively mix of creative minds and dedicated members behind all our campaigns. Composed of talented marketing specialists, gifted designers, and polished videographers, we are the amplified voice of our divisions. Together, we craft engaging content and foster an environment where our community thrives.
HackUTD is an annual 24-hour hackathon that attracts a wide variety of sponsors and participants to come together to solve various problems. During our last iteration (HackUTD X), we had over 1000 participants and 230 project submissions, making us the 2nd largest 24 hour hackathon in the US! None of this would have been possible without the amazing, dedicated team of organizers we had on our side.
Welcome to ACM Industry!! Our team has the pleasure of acting as the bridge between companies and the ACM community; we do this by introducing more companies to ACM and its members, as well as involving our current sponsors through the various events and workshops we host with them. If there's a technology you would like to learn, a challenge in the college-to-corporate transition you would like to overcome, or if you just want to network with industry professionals, check out ACM Industry!
