The BRAID (Building Recruiting and Inclusion for Diversity) initiative was announced on Sept. 25 by former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton during her address at the 2014 Clinton Global Initiative (CGI) Annual Meeting, as part of the Girl's CHARGE, a CGI Commitment to Action comprised of 30 companies, civil society organizations, multilaterals and governments to improve learning and leadership opportunities for young women and girls. BRAID is supported by three-year funding commitments from Facebook, Google, Intel and Microsoft. Maria Klawe, president of Harvey Mudd College, and Telle Whitney, president and CEO of the Anita Borg Institute (ABI), will lead the BRAID initiative. Participating universities will receive $30,000 per year for three years to help support their efforts. The Department of Computer Science and Engineering (CSE) at the University of North Texas (UNT) was one of 15 universities in the United States to join a nationwide initiative to recruit more women and underrepresented minorities into the ranks of computer science majors and professionals.

AI/CS Summer Research Program-A unique aspect of this program is the immersive 4-week effort which guides students through all stages from initial project selection to research poster presentation. This is accomplished through intensive group efforts, including brief twice-daily full group meetings ("huddles") and daily project group meetings lead by faculty and grad students. The intensive period culminates in a celebration and poster presentation event on the final Friday. This initial period demonstrates what can be accomplished with well-organized, focused, and intensive group effort, and accelerates the student preparation for more independent efforts throughout the summer and into the next academic year. Uniquely this year, we are accepting students with both AI and general computer science interest, with the goal of having project options across both domains to provide additional opportunities for teams.
