Developer Student Club

The Developer Student Club was established in 2020 as a Google Developers program for students on campus. Through their membership of the club, students build their professional and personal network, access all of the developer sources and resources provided by Google, and work together to build solutions to local problems in a peer-to-peer learning environment so that all club members benefit from the expertise of others in the relevant fields.

The focus is on spreading knowledge and familiarity with Google tools in:

  • Machine Learning & Deep Learning  
  • Cloud Computing
  • App Development
  • Other Google tools such as Google Assistant, Flutter, etc.
