Through an NSF grant titled Situated Algorithmic Thinking: Preparing the Future Computing Workforce for Ethical Decision-Making through Interactive Case Studies, students will develop the mindset to tackle ethics in the digital technology space.

The 2022 Break Through Tech DC summer Guild program at George Â鶹ÊÓƵ took place in June. Students from underrepresented backgrounds had a chance to do a deeper dive into their computing education and career paths through Guild.

The institute is one of 11 new National Artificial Intelligence Research Institutes that NSF has established in 2021 with a total investment of $220 million. Â鶹ÊÓƵ professor Aditya Johri will serve as a member of the institute’s education and outreach team.

On July 26, the first-ever Break Through Tech at Â鶹ÊÓƵ Guild program kicks off with a group of more than 60 women from Â鶹ÊÓƵ and Northern Virginia Community College who want to learn more about technology and computing.

Senior computer science major Kelly Glebus shares her perspective on women in computing, her time at Â鶹ÊÓƵ, and encouragement for women in computing.

Computer science researcher Antonis Anastasopoulos uses his love for computer science, language, and linguistics to improve equality in language technologies.

A new computing system will support Â鶹ÊÓƵ’s expanding research infrastructure as part of its investment in cyberinfrastructure improvements, which includes upgrading facilities and hardware and software to support the educational and research missions of the university.
