CRA Distributed Mentor Project: Mentoring Undergraduate Females in Computer Science and Computer Engineering

为了增加进入研究生院的妇女人数， 计算机研究协会CISE学科的学校 (CRA)提出了一个分布式指导项目，其中20- 30名女本科生将与一些 CISE研究领域的女教授，每年参加 在导师的研究机构进行研究学生 最有可能是计算机科学或计算机工程专业 尽管这不是必需的。 CRA是美国和加拿大学术界的一个协会， 计算机科学和计算机工程系， 从事基础计算研究的工业实验室。的 CRA的使命是代表和通知计算研究 社区，并支持和促进其利益。温加滕医生 是CRA的执行董事。O 'Rourke博士，学术带头人 这个项目的，是计算机科学系主任在 史密斯学院，马萨诸塞州。

In an effort to increase the number of women entering graduate school in CISE disciplines, the Computing Research Association (CRA) is proposing a distributed mentoring project where 20- 30 female undergraduate students will be matched with a number of female professors in CISE research areas each year, to participate in summer of research at the mentor's institution. The students will most likely be computer science or computer engineering majors although this is not required. The CRA is an association of U.S. and Canadian academic departments of Computer Science and Computer Engineering and Industrial Laboratories engaging in basic computing research. The mission of CRA is to represent and inform the computing research community and to support and promote its interests. Dr. Weingarten is the Executive Director of CRA. Dr. O'Rourke, the academic leader of this project, is the Department Chair of Computer Science at Smith College, Massachusetts.
