9522079 Giguette This award provides support for a comprehensive program that will make substantial infrastructure changes to the computer science and related disciplines at Xavier University. The goals of the program are 1) to increase the number of majors in CISE disciplines by 50%, 2) to increase the number of CISE majors who go to graduate school by 100%, and 3) to expand the research activities of all of the CISE students and faculty. These goals will be addressed by revising and significantly expanding the current summer outreach programs, expanding the undergraduate research and mentoring programs, and establishing new teaching and research laboratories. This project builds on the very successful similar efforts in the health sciences at Xavier. It is anticipated that comparable results can be achieved in the computing disciplines as well and that the model developed in this project has the potential to become a national model for minority student success at other similar institutions. ***

该奖项为一个综合项目提供支持，该项目将对泽维尔大学的计算机科学和相关学科进行实质性的基础设施改革。该计划的目标是：1)使CISE学科专业人数增加50%；2)使CISE专业研究生人数增加100%；3)扩大CISE所有学生和教师的研究活动。这些目标将通过修订和显著扩大目前的夏季外展计划，扩大本科生研究和指导计划，以及建立新的教学和研究实验室来实现。这个项目建立在泽维尔大学健康科学领域非常成功的类似努力的基础上。预计在计算机学科中也可以取得类似的结果，并且本项目开发的模型有可能成为其他类似机构中少数民族学生成功的全国模型。* * *
