Student volunteers play a crucial role in ensuring the success of ICSE. In this year’s virtual ICSE, they help with many things from monitoring social media channels to managing Q&A during sessions. Being a student volunteer is an excellent opportunity to meet, interact, and network with leading academic and industrial researchers and practitioners in the area of Software Engineering. Being a student volunteer is also a great way to meet other students from all over the world that are also interested in Software Engineering and to cover some of the costs of attending the conference!

This exclusive experience is available to both undergraduate and graduate students from all over the world who are enthusiastic and willing to contribute to make ICSE 2021 a unique experience for all attendees.
