About | CeSIUM

University of Minho Software Engineering Students' Center

In 1995, during the Systems and Informatics Engineering course at UM... A group of 3rd-year students requested official recognition for a student center. This marked the beginning of an organization that, 20 years later, continues its mission of promoting the course and defending student interests.
