The goal of this project is to improve the Computer Science and Engineering (CSE) national academic workforce by increasing the participation of women at all levels. CSE is the only scientific discipline that has experienced a significant drop in the participation of undergraduate women in the last twenty years. In order to keep the nations competitive edge in the global science, technology and economy, women must be recruited and retained in critical fields such as CSE. Women in CSE academic programs have few role models among their most senior and visible faculty: In the academic year 2003/2004, less than 10% of CSE full professors were women. Successful, senior female faculty provide the role models, teachers, mentors, and "existence proofs" that female students need if they are to see careers in CSE as viable and that male students need if they are to develop appropriately balanced views of female colleagues.This CRA-W project addresses the problem of too few full professor women faculty by expanding the Associate Professor Cohort Program (CAPP) that aims to increase the percentage of CSE women faculty with the rank of full professor by forming and mentoring a cohort of women from the associate professor ranks. The cornerstone of the Cohort Project is the involvement of senior women, appointed as CRA-W Distinguished Professors, who actively participate as role models, mentors, and advisers. The project builds a community of associate professors, providing them with mentoring, leadership training, encouragement and ongoing peer-support activities. The program includes Professional Development Workshops - one for women faculty whose primary function is research (CAPP-R) and one for women faculty whose primary function is education (CAPP-E), a series of smaller meetings in conjunction with technical conferences/seminars, and ongoing electronically-based support activities.

该项目的目标是通过增加妇女在各级的参与来改善计算机科学与工程（CSE）国家学术队伍。在过去二十年中，CSE是唯一一门本科生女性参与人数显著下降的科学学科。为了在全球科学、技术和经济领域保持竞争力，必须在CSE等关键领域招募和留住女性。在CSE学术课程中，女性在其最资深和最引人注目的教员中几乎没有榜样：在2003/2004学年，不到10%的CSE正教授是女性。成功的、资深的女教师提供了榜样、老师、导师和“存在的证据”，如果女学生认为CSE的职业是可行的，那么她们就需要这些，如果男学生想要对女同事形成适当的平衡看法，那么她们就需要这些。这个CRA-W项目通过扩大副教授队列计划（CAPP）来解决女性正教授太少的问题，该计划旨在通过组建和指导副教授级别的女性队列来提高CSE女性正教授级别教师的比例。队列项目的基石是资深女性的参与，她们被任命为CRA-W杰出教授，作为榜样、导师和顾问积极参与。该项目建立了一个副教授社区，为他们提供指导、领导力培训、鼓励和持续的同伴支持活动。该计划包括专业发展研讨会-一个为主要功能是研究的女教师（CAPP-R）和一个为主要功能是教育的女教师（CAPP-E），一系列与技术会议/研讨会相结合的小型会议，以及正在进行的电子支持活动。
