You’ve heard of CES, SXSW, Black Hat USA and now Computing MTU. Last night kicked off the Institute of Computing and Cyber Systems’ three day show case, that focuses on the research and developments made by students and faculty at the university. There are various seminars and displays taking place today on campus. The core to Computing MTU is evolution in both technology and student growth.
Computer technology and entrepreneuring have gone hand in hand for many years. And the next Apple or Microsoft will likely come out of showcases such as Michigan Tech’s. Seminars and panel discussions taking place tonight and tomorrow are at the Memorial Union Building and the Rozsa Center.
