Summer Intern Program, June-July 1992

Abstract

The goal of the internship program is to give minority undergraduate students an introduction to what graduate study in Computer Science is like, to encourage them to consider graduate education. A further goal is to build stronger relationships with local four year HBCUs (Historically Black Colleges and Universities). To accomplish this we organized an eight week program, consisting of: A research project; A series of seminars by different faculty on their research areas, partly modeled on our course 'Introduction to Graduate Studies in Computer Science' that all incoming graduate students are required to take; Short courses, run in conjunction with the College of Computing Continuing Education staff, on topics such as UNIX and C. We recruited students through the active cooperation of faculty at local HBCUs (including Spellman College, Clark- Atlanta University, and Morris Brown College).
