CS is proud to partner with Google Research to offer exploreCSR:
Democratizing AI, a two-day workshop followed by an optional
semester-long immersive research
experience program for undergraduate students. The theme of the workshop
and the research experience program is AI fairness, accountability,
transparency, and ethics. We encourage students from
historically-underrepresented groups in computing research, including
but not limited to women, Latin American, African American, American
Indian or Indigenous, LGBTQIA+, first-generation college students, and
students with disabilities, to apply to this program. No prior research
experience is required! Our goal is to expose
students to what computing and AI research can look like, to help them
build self-efficacy and practical research skills, and to encourage them
to pursue graduate studies in computer science. We are especially
interested in applicants from colleges and universities
that do not already offer extensive research opportunities.
Who can apply: Current undergraduate students (including graduating seniors) attending college in the United States.
Experience needed: Prospective students should have completed an
introductory computer science course. Coursework in calculus, linear
algebra, and probability are also helpful but not strictly required. No
prior research experience is necessary!
When and Where: The two-day workshop will be hosted virtually on January 14-15, 2022.
The application deadline is
December 22, 2021.
