UPB in First Group Chosen for Association
of Information Systems Student Chapters

The Association for Information Systems has granted the University of Pittsburgh at Bradford a founding charter as one of 59 original student chapters.

AIS is the world’s premier community for information systems educators, researchers and professionals. It sponsors 33 special-interest groups on research and teaching, 24 national and regional chapters, four international conferences and a number of academic journals.

“As a chartered student chapter, AIS UPB will take advantage of the resources, structure and support of AIS to serve the students and the community in Bradford,” said Dr. Ken Wang, assistant professor of computer information systems and technology and advisor for the new club.

Wang said that possible projects for the club include providing information technology services to students, the entire campus and the Bradford community, and providing extra-curricular training for students, including workshops and seminars on recent topics in IT, job market and interview preparations, guest speeches, and field study opportunities.

Dave Kemick, a computer information systems and technology major from Bradford, will be the president.
