We are testing a new system for linking grants to scientists.
The funding information displayed below comes from the
NIH Research Portfolio Online Reporting Tools and the
NSF Award Database.
The grant data on this page is limited to grants awarded in the United States and is thus partial. It can nonetheless be used to understand how funding patterns influence mentorship networks and vice-versa, which has deep implications on how research is done.

Computer Science Research Experiences For Undergraduates
9322249 Pitts The Center for Undergraduate Research in Virtual Systems Development at Trinity University provides a unique opportunity for outstanding young undergraduate scholars to participate in a research experience in the challenging and exciting area of Virtual Reality. South Texas is a high percentage minority area and major effort is being waged to recruit minorities into the participant pool. Five participants will be selected for the 1994 summer research experience and, subsequently, ten participants will be selected for each of the following summers (1995 and 1996). Seven Professors of the Computer Science Department provide the research mentorship for students in seven different state-of-the-art aspects of Virtual Reality. Each student selects a research aspect area and mentor from research presentations/demonstrations during the first week of the Summer Research Experience. After eight weeks of intensive research, each student should have an in-depth understanding of research methodology, simulated world development, 3-D graphics, object oriented graphic design, intelligent systems and, consequently, Virtual Reality. Most research will be conducted in the newly created Meadows Scientific Visualization Laboratory that contains twenty-two (22) H.P. 9000 networked high-end processors with enhanced graphics capability. Participants will be expected to submit their research experience to either the ACM Annual SIGSE Conference or the National Conference on Undergraduate Research. ***

Laboratory For Great Ideas in Computer Science
9452050 Howland The proposed state-of-the-art computer laboratory will support an innovative new laboratory computer science course for students majoring in disciplines other than computer science, especially education majors who intend to teach science at the secondary level. This new course concept implements a contained laboratory that uses a breadth first rather than depth first approach to cover a broad range of computer science topics at the introductory level. The computer is studied as a phenomena, not just a tool yielding a non-classical but effective approach to instilling basic computer concepts in non-science oriented students. Finally, the course uses the Scheme programming notation as a lingua franca to describe computer science topics, build working models of computer science constructs and perform laboratory experiments without being a course which focuses primarily on teaching programming.
