The Association for Computing Machinery, or ACM, was founded in 1947 as the world’s first scientific and educational computing society. Its membership was approximately 83,000 as of 2007.
The Stanford chapter of the ACM currently has 300+ members. We serve the Stanford community by planning and organizing numerous industry, academic, and social events each quarter. The Stanford chapter was started in 2007 by computer science student David Gobaud.
