Funding Computer Scientists to Attend the On-Ramps into Academia Workshop

2008年，NSF ADVANCE计划向华盛顿大学ADVANCE制度变革中心（CIC）提供了一笔赠款（HRD-0819407），以实施“进入学术界的坡道”系列研讨会。该系列旨在提供博士学位。为工业界、咨询界和政府研究实验室的女性提供必要的信息和资源，使她们能够成功地过渡到学术界担任教职。下一次研讨会将于2009年10月18日至20日在华盛顿州的西雅图举行。在迄今为止的15名申请人中，8人拥有计算机科学博士学位，另有一名女性拥有博士学位。在技术交流，重点是人机交互（HCI）。本补编要求为计算机科学领域的这些妇女提供旅费支助，以参加On-Ramps讲习班。

In 2008, the NSF ADVANCE program awarded a grant (HRD-0819407) to the University of Washington ADVANCE Center for Institutional Change (CIC) to implement the "On-Ramps into Academia" workshop series. The series aims to provide Ph.D. level women in industry, consulting, and government research labs with the information and resources necessary to make a successful transition back to academia as faculty.The next workshop will be held October 18-20, 2009 in Seattle, WA. Of the fifteen applicants to date, eight have Ph.D.s in Computer Science and an additional woman has a Ph.D. in Technical Communication with a focus on Human-Computer Interaction (HCI). This supplement requests travel support for the these women in Computer Science to attend the On-Ramps workshop.
