Spelman College proposes the ARTSI (Advancing Robotics Technology for Societal Impact) Alliance in collaboration with Florida A&M University, the University of the District of Columbia, Hampton University, Morgan State University, Norfolk State University, Winston-Salem State University, the University of Arkansas-Pine Bluff, Carnegie Mellon University, Georgia Institute of Technology, Brown University, Duke University, the University of Alabama, the University of Washington, and the University of Pittsburgh. Seven of these partners are HBCUs and seven are Carnegie Research I institutions. Their collaboration joins the strengths of HBCUs in conducting outreach and education in a nurturing learning environment with those of the R1's for conducting world class research. The ARTSI Alliance will motivate students to pursue computer science careers by emphasizing the creativity and socially beneficial aspects robotics technology with hands-on projects, curriculum, and media. ARTSI activities will span the academic pipeline from K-12 through the faculty ranks. At the K-12 level, students will be recruited with community outreach using robotics and art, robotics road shows, and a robotics educational film online repository. At the undergraduate level, HBCU students will be exposed to new robotics curriculum, and they will be encouraged to pursue advanced training in graduate school through summer research experiences, collaborative, interdisciplinary robotics projects in the arts and health, instruction in technical film documentation, student virtual film festivals, annual robotics conferences, and instruction in entrepreneurship for computer science. At the faculty level, it will increase the number of HBCU faculty who educate students in robotics and involve students in robotics research by providing faculty mentoring, summer research experiences for underrepresented faculty at R1 robotics labs, robotics summer workshops, and development and dissemination of robotics educational material through a web-based portal. The Alliance will have industry partners, including Seagate, iRobot, Microsoft Research, and Juxtopia, as well as educational partners, including Florida-Georgia Louis Stokes Alliance for Minority Participation and Computer Science Teachers Association.

斯佩尔曼学院与佛罗里达农工大学、哥伦比亚特区大学、汉普顿大学、摩根州立大学、诺福克州立大学、温斯顿-塞勒姆州立大学、阿肯色大学派恩布拉夫分校、卡内基梅隆大学、佐治亚理工学院、布朗大学、杜克大学、阿拉巴马大学、乔治亚大学合作，提议成立 ARTSI（推进机器人技术促进社会影响）联盟 华盛顿大学和匹兹堡大学。其中七个合作伙伴是 HBCU，七个是卡内基研究 I 机构。他们的合作将 HBCU 在培育性学习环境中开展外展和教育的优势与 R1 进行世界一流研究的优势结合起来。 ARTSI 联盟将通过实践项目、课程和媒体强调机器人技术的创造力和社会效益，从而激励学生从事计算机科学职业。 ARTSI 活动将涵盖从 K-12 到教师队伍的学术管道。在 K-12 级别，将通过使用机器人技术和艺术、机器人路演和机器人教育电影在线存储库的社区外展来招募学生。 在本科阶段，HBCU 学生将接触新的机器人课程，并鼓励他们通过暑期研究经验、艺术和健康领域的协作、跨学科机器人项目、技术电影文档指导、学生虚拟电影节、年度机器人会议以及计算机科学创业指导，在研究生院接受高级培训。在教师层面，它将增加 HBCU 教师的数量，这些教师对学生进行机器人技术教育，并通过提供教师指导、为 R1 机器人实验室中代表性不足的教师提供夏季研究经验、机器人夏季研讨会以及通过基于网络的门户开发和传播机器人教育材料，让学生参与机器人研究。该联盟将拥有希捷、iRobot、微软研究院和 Juxtopia 等行业合作伙伴，以及佛罗里达-佐治亚州路易斯斯托克斯少数民族参与联盟和计算机科学教师协会等教育合作伙伴。
