The Israeli Computer Science Association is being established as a national framework for the computer science community in Israel. Its purpose is to strengthen ties among researchers, faculty members, advanced students, departments, and faculties across the country; to promote conferences, community initiatives and to serve as a shared address for the academic and professional computer science community.

The Association is currently in its founding stage and is led by an interim executive committee that includes representatives from several universities in Israel. After its establishment, the Association’s leadership will rotate among a number of universities. During its first two years, beginning in October 2026, the Association will be hosted by Ben-Gurion University of the Negev.

We invite researchers, faculty members, postdoctoral fellows, advanced students, and others interested in the Israeli computer science community to join the Association’s national mailing list.

When requesting to join the mailing list, please include your full name, email address, and institutional affiliation.
