CRA Digital Government Fellows Program

The Digital Government Fellows program, supported by the National Science Foundation, intended to build ties between the academic and industrial computing research communities on the one hand and the information technology workers in federal, state, and local governments on the other. Digital Government Fellows were computing researchers - typically early career faculty or industrial researchers who had received the doctorate within the past few years - who showed significant promise in their research. Each CRA Digital Fellow was expected to give a public lecture to an audience that included a significant number of government professionals.
