"Grant helps fund CMU women in tech initiative"
Carnegie Mellon just got a three-year grant from the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation for their new initiative to get more women to enter graduate computer science programs. "The new program -- Women@IT -- will emphasize attracting women who have done their undergraduate work in fields outside of computer science, such as mathematics, biology, physics or psychology." Carnegie Mellon has already had great success with their Women@SCS program, aimed at undergraduate students.
