This project is developing and implementing curricular strategies that can improve the retention and graduation rate of women students. Women students typically make up 20 percent of the lower-level classes, but only 12 percent of the upper-level classes. A computer science laboratory that is run by and for computer science students is being implemented. The laboratory is giving women computer science students systematic experiences that are developing their confidence and ability to accept positions of increasing importance and responsibility in a computing environment. The new laboratory is the vehicle for providing these experiences. In addition to attracting and retaining women to the curriculum, this program is significantly benefiting all of the students in the computer science program. *

该项目正在制定和实施课程战略，以提高女生的保留率和毕业率。女生通常占低年级学生的20%，但只占高年级学生的12%。正在建立一个由计算机科学学生管理并为他们服务的计算机科学实验室。该实验室正在为计算机科学专业的女学生提供系统的经验，培养她们的信心和能力，使她们能够在计算机环境中接受越来越重要和责任越来越大的职位。新实验室是提供这些经验的工具。除了吸引和留住妇女的课程，该计划是显着受益于计算机科学课程的所有学生。 *
