Founded in 2014, the club specializes in programming and represents the student branch of the international organization ACM at PSUT. It aims to raise the level of PSUT students’ programming and problem-solving skills, and make them ready to compete in regional and international competitions that involve logic and thinking through programming.

In the past few years, we realized that computer science is associated in Jordanian families with words and terms such as "programming", or "employee who writes computer codes in order to earn a living", and this seems very strange after our study of this science!

Therefore, we have made it our mission to confront the common misperception held by our society of computer science. We want to show our society that computer science is actually a complete science, like physics or astronomy, and computers are just a tool!

You don't need to write codes to use computer science, it is everywhere!
