Student OrganizationsThe SCE Student Council addresses the need of the students within the School of Computing and Engineering. CSEE encourages every student to actively participate in a student organization that matches his or her interests. These organizations include:ACM (Association for Computing Machinery) is the leading professional organization in Computer Science and its student chapter is very active. Among others, it sponsors and participates in numerous programming contests. AITP (Association of Information Technology Professionals) caters to the interest of both information technology students and business students. Their office is in the Henry W. Bloch School of Business and Public Administration. IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, Inc.) is the leading professional organization in Electrical and Computer Engineering. Many (if not most) in the Computer Science profession are also members of IEEE. Our student chapter won the prestigeous Region 5 RAB Student Branch Membership Growth and Leadership Award in 2003, the Region 5 Student Branch Web Site Contest in 2005, and was Runner Up in the IEEE International Student Branch Web Site Contest, also in 2005. Eta Kappa Nu is the Honor Society in Electrical and Computer Engineering. The student chapter at UMKC, Theta Pi, was installed in 1980. Upsilon Pi Epsilon is the International Honor Society for the computing and information discipline. A UPE student chapter was founded in 2004.
