The Pledge of the Computing Professional

The Pledge of the Computing Professional The Pledge of the Computing Professional is an organization that runs a rite-of-passage ceremony for graduates of computing-related degree programs.

The use of computers is pervasive throughout our society, having expanded into most areas of everyday life. Given the ever-increasing reliance placed upon computer-based and augmented technologies, graduates from computing-related programs need to be more aware than ever of their responsibility toward ensuring that the public is both well-served and protected in the application of these technologi

es. To assist with this effort, The Pledge of the Computing Professional, Inc. was created to establish and promote a rite-of-passage ceremony for students graduating in the computing sciences (e.g., computer science, computer engineering, information systems, and software engineering) that is similar in nature and scope to the Ring Ceremony employed by the Order of the Engineer for students graduating from engineering programs in the United States.
