The National Science Foundation (NSF) Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program awarded a $151,547 project grant to Florida International University (FIU) to construct culturally relevant materials for Hispanic or Latin?/X/A/O students, increase awareness of the technical interview process in academia, and establish opportunities for students to gain exposure and apply computing principles needed for career attainment. The 2-year project, effective September 1, 2024, seeks to develop inclusive content that can be integrated throughout curricula and offered as training by student-led groups at Hispanic-Serving Institutions in the southeastern U.S. region. The project includes a qualitative investigation exploring educators' conceptions on the hiring process in computing and preparation approaches to enhance graduate employability.
