The society for all things tech-related; gaming, programming, robotics, hacking and more!
  • Do you run linux as your main or secondary PC operating system?
  • Do you like playing video games or with electronics?
  • Can you count in binary?
  • Do you also dream about Linus Torvalds and pints?

If you answered "yes" to any of the above questions, then CompSoc is for you!

CompSoc is University of Galway's Computer and Networking Society. We host events for everything computing related from how to setup your own blog to System Administration and Programming Tutorials. We also host a number of services on our Society run servers for our members. CompSoc is the oldest computer-related society in Ireland, while many Alumni believe it was much earlier, was formally established in 1977 during the days that the University was known as UCG.
