The Artemis Project

该奖项支持Artemis项目，这是一个由布朗大学计算机科学系管理的为期5周的暑期项目，旨在鼓励当地公立学校的女孩在计算机科学领域以及更广泛的科学和工程领域追求职业生涯。参与者是正在升入九年级的学生，他们接触到了计算机科学的广泛应用，并被介绍给了各种基础计算技术。Artemis的一个同样重要的目标是培养每年担任协调员的本科生妇女的领导能力和创业技能。这些协调员以社会企业家的身份为当地社区服务。

This award supports the Artemis project, a 5-week Summer program administered by Brown University's Department of Computer Science designed to encourage girls from local public schools to pursue careers in Computer Science, and more broadly in science and engineering. Participants are rising ninth graders and are exposed to the breadth of applications of Computer Science, and are introduced to a variety of the technologies underlying computing. An equally important goal of Artemis is to develop the leadership and entrepreneurial skills of undergraduate women who serve as coordinators each year. These coordinators serve the local community in their capacity as social entrepreneurs.
