With VIScon we want to inspire students to innovate and to push the boundaries of what is possible in computer science and its related fields. We want to turn students into visionaries who, after completing their studies, will make a difference. We want to show that there is so much more to computer science than what could ever be covered during the lectures. VIScon seeks to be the complement to the Kontaktparty, the largest academic IT recruiting fair in Switzerland which is also organized by VIS in the Spring semester of every year. While the Kontaktparty is focused on helping our students out when it comes to their professional life, VIScon is focused on discussing captivating subjects. Still, we do believe that an engaging exhibit, talk or workshop is one of the best ways to connect with the next generation of computer scientists.
