MISSION

Bridging academia and industry for computing students.

The PSU ACM Student Chapter is a platform for professional development, new ideas and working together. It exists to close the gap between university and industry, and to build a community where students can grow, learn and contribute to computing more widely.

COMPETITION_DAY 17 OCT 2026

WebForge 2026

An AI-assisted web engineering competition. Every team receives the same application brief, then plans it in Excalidraw, designs it, builds it with AI assistants and Firebase, ships it to Vercel behind a real domain, absorbs a mid-competition change request, and presents the result. Three preparation workshop days run 11, 12 and 14 October; the brief stays locked until competition day.
