The Association for Computing Machinery, or ACM at UC San Diego is UC San Diego's largest members-first computing organization, with over 4,000 members and over 200 technical, professional, and social events year-round. We’re not just computing, though — we bring together anyone and everyone who shares our love of technology, design, and innovation!

Becoming a member is really easy and free! By attending any of our events or joining our discord, you’re already a member! But, if you want to make it official, go onto the ACM membership portal and create an account. Now, you can check in to any of our events, get points, and buy cool merch on our store :D
At ACM, we believe in creating genuine connections and that led us to creating Bit-Byte: our big-little program! To help you meet new people and make lifelong friends the Bit-Byte program consists of a series of curated socials and activities ending with Allocation where your match will be revealed. We'll be happy to have you if you want mentorship, a guide, or even just a friend to walk your journey through college with you! Here is the info for Bit-Byte Fall 2022: acmurl.com/bitbyteinfo
Diamond staff is ACM’s board shadowing program. Apps open at the beginning of fall quarter, and throughout winter quarter you will be assigned to a team and learn about the internal structure of our organization. This is a great way to get acquainted with how ACM board is, as well as a way to meet new people and make new friends. Feel free to DM @Murou Wang on discord at @murou with any questions that you have!
