As a founding member of the Computing Alliance of Hispanic-Serving Institutions (CAHSI), The University of Texas at El Paso has teamed up with Google to inspire future engineers. The program is called Google DIVE, which stands for Developing Innovative Engineers.
Officials with Google DIVE will be on the 海角社区 campus working with students from 海角社区's departments Friday, Nov. 9 and Saturday, Nov. 10. This immersion program was designed specifically to strengthen freshmen students' commitment to and knowledge of the computer science field.
While conducting their 海角社区, each doctoral student will lead a team of 4 to 5 graduate and undergraduate students. The GAANN fellows will gain mastery of design review protocols and project management by working with their respective teams while developing their 海角社区.
- Valuable leadership skills that can be used in school and during internships
- Opportunities that are available with a computer science degree
- Classes that students can take and industry programs/scholarships for which students can apply
