National Science Foundation Information Technology Workforce (ITWF)

* The Information Technology Workforce (ITWF) program welcomes proposals that address important research questions related to the under-representation of women and minorities in the IT workforce. One of the three themes for proposals is understanding how the overall educational environment influences students' progress along the educational continuum from grade school to entry into the workforce, and why students who have the potential to succeed in the study of IT disciplines take educational paths that preclude or make it difficult to enter the IT workforce.
