This CISE Special Project award provides funding for approximately sixty undergraduate, graduate student, and MSI faculty to attend the 2007 Richard Tapia Celebration of Diversity in Computing Conference which will be held on October 14-17, 2007 in Orlando, Florida. The intellectual merit of this proposal involves enabling a larger number of students to attend and benefit from the unique environment provided by the Tapia Conference. They will have access to the many researchers and technical presentations at the conference. In addition, the students themselves can present their own work in a poster session (part of a national competition sponsored by the ACM) and at a PhD Consortium, giving them the opportunity to get feedback from discipline specialists. The Tapia Conference provides an incredibly supportive environment for students from the under-represented groups in Computing ? Native Americans, Hispanics, and African Americans ? to engage in intellectual discourse with a range of researchers. Students will also meet many of their peers from other institutions which will enable them to build their personal networks and form professional relationships that can last for their entire career. This award will also fund travel support for some faculty at MSIs, giving them the opportunity to accompany their student mentees and make important technical contacts for themselves.The broader impacts of this proposal include outreach and opportunities for a diverse set of students and faculty in computing. Students and faculty who attend the Tapia Conference will be exposed to role models, mentors, and professional peers. The experience will strengthen their commitment to and skills in computing, increasing their persistence and professional success.

这个CISE特别项目奖提供资金约60名本科生，研究生，和MSI教师参加2007年理查德塔皮亚庆祝多样性计算会议将于2007年10月14日至17日在奥兰多，佛罗里达举行。这一建议的智力价值涉及使更多的学生能够参加并受益于塔皮亚会议提供的独特环境。他们将有机会在会议上接触到许多研究人员和技术演示。此外，学生自己可以在海报会议（ACM赞助的全国比赛的一部分）和博士联盟中展示自己的作品，让他们有机会从学科专家那里获得反馈。塔皮亚会议提供了一个令人难以置信的支持环境，为学生从代表性不足的群体在计算？美洲原住民、西班牙裔和非洲裔美国人？与一系列研究人员进行智力交流。学生还将认识许多来自其他机构的同龄人，这将使他们能够建立个人网络，并形成可以持续整个职业生涯的专业关系。该奖项还将为MSI的一些教师提供差旅支持，让他们有机会陪伴学生学员并为自己建立重要的技术联系。该提案的更广泛影响包括为计算机领域的各种学生和教师提供外联和机会。参加塔皮亚会议的学生和教师将接触到榜样，导师和专业同行。这些经验将加强他们对计算机的承诺和技能，提高他们的毅力和职业成功。
