Scholarships for ACM Richard Tapia Celebration of Diversity in Computing
The 2015 Richard Tapia Conference (Feb. 2015 in Boston) brings together undergraduate and graduate students, faculty, researchers, and professionals in computing from all backgrounds and ethnicities to celebrate the diversity that exists in computing, connect with others with common backgrounds, obtain advice from and make contacts with computing leaders in academia and industry and be inspired by great presentations and conversations with leaders with common backgrounds. UMBC president Freeman Hrabowski and recent UMBC faculty member Shaun Kane will be plenary speakers this year.
The conference provides scholarships for students (undergraduate and graduate), post-docs and faculty that include conference registration, meals, hotel accommodations and a travel stipend. Tapia scholarships are generously funded by government and industry organizations.
The deadline to submit applications is Thursday, September 12. See here for more information and to apply for a conference scholarship.
