Student Life
Meet new friends. Learn new skills. Have fun and enrich your student life. There's lots happening across campus and with your fellow peers in Computer Science.
Computer Science Course Union (CSCU)
The CSCU (external link) is the Department’s democratically elected student association. We advocate for all full-time Computer Science students. We are your voice. We provide helpful CS-related information such as exam banks, tutor lists, course reviews and more. We're also a hub for CS-related current events and activities.

Women in Computer Science (WiCS)
The WiCS student group promotes women in Computer Science at Toronto Metropolitan. We hold open meetings and casual gatherings throughout the school year. Gather with like-minded peers. Activities can be technical, career-related or simply on themes of interest to females, such as salary negotiation, self-defence, consent and more.
Get Involved: Attend a workshop, networking event, or social. Meet up with female-supportive CS peers.
