ACM Distinguished Lectureship
Program
The ACM Distinguished Lectureer Program is one of the premier technology outreach programs in the computing industry. In the United States, several dozen distinguished computing professionals serve as current ACM Distinguished lecturers each year. These Lecturers give talks to over one hundred ACM chapters and regional magnet events. The Lectureship Series is administered by the Lectureship Advisory Committee as a free-standing project within the ACM Technology Outreach Program which, in turn, operates under the auspices of the ACM Membership Activities Board. See how we're doing! Check out our most recent operational summaries of the ACM Distinguished Lecturer Programs. This summary provides information on the number of lectures, audience sizes, etc. Also see the student and chapter feedback on FY1996-7, FY1997-8, FY1998-9, FY1999-2000, and FY2000-2001 ACM Distinguished Lecturers. For an overview of the program, read the welcome letter from the program Director. In addition, the ACM Distinguished Lecturer Program serves other regions of the world as well. In Mexico and Central America, we offer our Programa de Conferencias ACM para México y Centro América, while "down under" we have the Australia and New Zealand Distinguished Lecturer Program.
