Computer Science Mentoring Organization

Connecting passionate CS students through mentorship, events, and workshops

The Computer Science Mentoring Organization, or CoSMO, is a space for students from across the computer science discipline to connect with one another.

The club’s best-known initiative is its mentorship program, which pairs more junior computer science students with more senior students who can provide support and guidance with technical and career-related questions. CoSMO also hosts events such as panel discussions, workshops, and
socials, giving members a variety of options to engage with the club.

CoSMO members can also participate in the club’s workshop series, where members demonstrate a variety of technical computer science skills. Through the workshops, mentorship, and other club activities, CoSMO’s several dozen members can expect to build technical, practical,
educational, and social skills.

CoSMO has empowered me to connect, inspire, and grow alongside
Khoury students who share a boundless passion for computer science
