Workshop for Undergraduate and MS Female Students in Speech Science and Technology

该研讨会面向目前从事语音科学和技术工作的女本科生和硕士生。它将在斯德哥尔摩的InterSpeech 2017上举行，并将与资深女性言语科学和技术研究人员进行小组讨论，学生海报演示，以及指导会议。该讲习班旨在培养本科生或硕士研究生对语音科学和技术领域的研究兴趣，这些女性尚未致力于获得语音科学或技术领域的博士学位，但在其学院和大学的个人或小组项目上有一些研究经验。举办研讨会的动机是，语言科学和技术领域的许多女性研究人员意识到，似乎相对较少的初级女性研究人员正在准备从事演讲工作。解决这一问题的办法是提供一个场所，在那里，语音科学和技术专业的学生可以相互介绍她们的工作，并向资深女性研究人员介绍她们自己的研究和职业经历，并对他们进行指导。第一次研讨会于2016年在旧金山举行，非常成功，对年轻女学生非常鼓舞人心。

The workshop is intended for women undergraduate and masters students who are currently working in speech science and technology. It will be held at Interspeech 2017, in Stockholm, and will feature panel discussions with senior female speech science and technology researchers, student poster presentations, and a mentoring session. The workshop is designed to foster interest in research in the field of speech science and technology in women at the undergraduate or masters level who have not yet committed to getting a PhD in speech science or technology areas but who have had some research experience in their college and universities on individual or group projects in those areas. The motivation for the workshop is the realization on the part of many women researchers in the speech science and technology fields that there seem to be relatively few junior women researchers in the 'pipeline' to careers in speech. This issue is addressed by providing a venue where students in speech science and technology can present their work to each other and to senior women researchers, and where senior women can describe their own research and career experience to students and mentor them. The first workshop was held in San Francisco in 2016 and was very successful and inspirational for young women students.
