SUMMARY

Voices in Software Engineering is an effort to help enrich the professional education and experience of individuals who are interested in topics of Software and Technology.  It is operated by the Society of Software Engineers on the Rochester Institute of Technology.  The event recieves major support from the Department of Software Engineering at RIT in addition to contributions from industry and other organizations who share the goal of enrichment for software professionals.

This is the 2nd ViSE event we've had since the effort's conception.  We'll be hosting Kyle Shank who graduated from the Software Engineering program at RIT in 2007.  He went on to become CEO of his own company called pressflip.  His talk is titled "Entepreneurship: When Engineers Start A Company."

We hope you'll come out and attend this and future ViSE events and of course, we are open to hearing your feedback.
