Academic Diversity in Computer Science

该项目启动了康涅狄格大学计算机科学课程的学术多样性。该计划为一群有才华的低收入学生提供财务和学术支持，以获得计算机科学学士学位。在这个程序的学生也获得了一个重要的背景，在一个二级学科，无论是作为一个主要或次要的浓度。该计划旨在吸引具有广泛兴趣的学生，并与校园内的组织合作，帮助从计算机科学中普遍代表性不足的人群中招募学生。学生在这个程序的最后三年作为本科生，并获得前两年的奖学金支持。该计划每年招收20名学生，他们可以以学生导师的形式获得额外的学术支持，并参与指导关系。校园内的教学研究所与该项目互动，以研究在计算机科学系拥有更多样化的学生群体时可能出现的教学问题。

This project initiates the Academic Diversity in Computer Science Program at the University of Connecticut. The program provides financial and academic support to a group of talented low-income students working towards a bachelor's degree in Computer Science. The students in this program also gain a significant background in a secondary discipline, either as a major or minor concentration. The program is designed to appeal to students with broad interests and works with organizations on campus to help recruit students from populations generally under-represented in Computer Science. Students are in this program for the final three years as undergraduates, and receive this scholarship support for the first two years. The program admits twenty students per year who have access to additional academic support in the form of student tutors and participation in a mentoring relationship. The Teaching and Learning Institute on campus interacts with the project to examine pedagogical issues that may arise in having a more diverse student population in the Computer Science Department.
