Dr. Tiffani Kelly will share the culturally grounded practices that guide a scholarship program for Indigenous Computer Science students at the University of Oklahoma. The CS-INCLUDES program aims to retain, support, and graduate students with bachelor’s degrees in Computer Science, helping to increase the national representation of Native and Indigenous computer scientists. Dr. Kelly will discuss the program’s structured support, resources, and insights to inform future programming at OU and other institutions supporting Native and Indigenous students in Computer Science and STEM.
