CRA Academic Careers Workshop

February 23-24, 2004
Washington, DC

CRA held another in its highly successful series of workshops for new faculty and advanced graduate students in computer science, computer engineering, computational science, and other computing-related disciplines. The workshop focused on practical methods for having a successful and fulfilling academic career.

Funding assistance for a limited number of U.S. graduate students to attend the workshop was available.

>> Agenda and Slides

Included talks on NSF, DARPA, and DoD, providing overviews of the agencies' operations and funding programs. There also was a workshop led by NSF staff on how to write a good grant proposal.
Collocated with the CRA Board of Directors' meeting and the CRA Computing Leadership Summit, the latter bringing together the presidents, executive directors, and other senior volunteers from AAAI, ACM, CACS/AIC, CRA, CSTB, IEEE Computer Society, SIAM, and USENIX. A joint reception was held with CRA board members and Summit attendees in order to give workshop participants an opportunity to meet informally with senior leaders from the computing community.
