In this talk, we will present the Society of Women in Cybersecurity (SWiCS), a less than one-year-old club. SWiCS is energized and ran by CSUSB students of The Jack H. Brown College of Business. The main aim of the club is to attract women to the technical field and especially to cybersecurity. SWiCS is a community of students (all genders) supporting each other through every step of their career, from school duties to job hunting. The aim of the club is to supplement classroom curricula through study groups, workshops, mentoring, networking, and internship/job placement assistance.
Though one year old, the club members have doubled in number, attracting not only females but also males.
