CECS Student Organization: Beachsort Technologies (BT)

Overview: Beachsort Technologies is a new CECS student organization founded and led by graduate student, Yuushi Kotow under the CECS Department Chair and Faculty Advisor, Dr. Wayne Dick.

Beachsort aims to provide students real-world Computer Science and Engineering projects in an environment similar to industry IT (Information Technology) companies. As such, students will learn how businesses operate, have meetings, participate in highly useful projects, utilize Beachsort’s development lab and meeting area in VEC-514. Student members will also enjoy a number of various events such as, luncheons, guest speakers, seminars and other activities to reinforce computer and business abilities.

We encourage students to become members of Beachsort Technologies and benefit from these activities. Undergraduate as well as graduate students are welcome to become members of the organization. Beachsort is a Special Interest Club which means students of all majors may opt to join the organization. As we successfully grow, majors from different colleges will be needed in order to keep up with the demands of this organization. Other majors needed include, but not limited to: Business, Marketing, and Art majors along with our Computer Science/Engineering majors.

In the future, student members may participate in executive positions within Beachsort Technologies which includes: Project Manager, Business Analyst, Marketing Analyst, Administrative Assistant, Treasurer, Event Coordinator, and Human Services.
