Computer Science Opportunities Email List

The CS-Opportunities Listserv is a mailing list for current students (colorado.edu email addresses only). This list shares computing-related opportunities such as internship openings, student employment, events on campus, student organizations, workshops, scholarships, and networking opportunities.

Appropriate for all current students with an interest in CS-related internships, activities, and events.

A few things to note about this list:

  • Students can join or leave the list at any time. See "How to Subscribe" and "How to Unsubscribe" below for instructions. However, note that if you are subscribed you will receive all messages distributed to this list, and if you unsubscribe you will not receive any of these messages. We are not able to offer a function to only "opt in" to messages about specific topics.
  • The list is moderated, so all messages are reviewed before being distributed to the list.
  • List membership is not visible to anyone other than administrators of the list.

Please note:

  • Messages containing email addresses are often edited to remove the email address (to avoid spam). For contact information, we recommend listing an email address as "chip.buffalo [at] colorado.edu" or similar, to communicate the contact info successfully.

  • Messages, if approved for distribution, are sent exactly as submitted, including subject and the entirey of the body of the message. Moderators cannot edit a message before distributing.
  • Messages unrelated to computer science students/opportunities will not be distributed.
  • Subject lines should be descriptive - for example "Student Group X kickoff meeting (Sept. 20, 10am)" or "XYZ Corp recruiting event (Oct. 10, 5pm)" - rather than generic subject lines like "meeting" or "FYI", etc.
  • HTML-formatted emails are acceptable.
