Students, building together.

The Association for Computing Machinery at UH Mānoa (ACM Mānoa) is the largest computer science student organization at the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa. As an official student chapter of the international ACM and a Registered Independent Organization (RIO), ACM Mānoa welcomes students of all backgrounds and experience levels who share a passion for computing.

Since its establishment, ACM Mānoa has evolved into a dynamic and inclusive community focused on innovation, collaboration, and professional growth. Guided by clearly defined goals, the organization makes strategic decisions that foster long-term development and leadership in the tech industry.

A core feature of ACM Mānoa's structure is its Special Interest Groups (SIGs), which empower members to lead initiatives based on their specific interests. This model encourages student-led projects and events, enriching the overall experience and ensuring that the organization continues to grow in alignment with the evolving interests of its members.

ACM Mānoa exists to bridge the gap between students and Hawaiʻi's growing IT industry by fostering a supportive and dynamic environment for aspiring computing professionals. Guided by its vision to empower every UH Mānoa Information & Computer Science graduate to thrive locally, the organization is committed to three core goals: social, professional, and technical enrichment.

Through community-building events, career-focused engagements, and hands-on technical experiences, ACM Mānoa cultivates well-rounded individuals prepared to lead and innovate within Hawaiʻi's tech landscape and beyond.
