Are you interested in algorithms, theoretical computer science, or curious about what research in these areas looks like?
Join us for WAVE 2026 — Women in Algorithms, Venture into Exploration on Friday, 11 September 2026, at the University of Copenhagen!
WAVE is a one-day workshop aimed at inspiring and supporting more women to explore research in algorithms and theoretical computer science. The day will combine accessible technical talks with personal perspectives on research and academic careers, giving participants a chance to learn about different areas of the field as well as the many paths that can lead into research.
