Morehouse College, University of Florida, Auburn University, and the American Institutes for Research will collaborate to extend the Institute for African-American Mentoring in Computing Sciences (iAAMCS, pronounced "i am cs"). iAAMCS serves as a national resource for the computing community and emphasizes mentoring as a primary strategy for increasing the participation of African-Americans in computing. iAAMCS seeks to build an ecosystem for African American researchers that have connected to each other through iAAMCS activities including: Fellowship Writing Bootcamp, Future Faculty and Research Scientist Mentoring Program, Annual Report on the State of Blacks in Computing in Higher Education, and the Black Student Matching Registry. iAAMCS will develop and disseminate mentoring content resources and guidelines for African American students in computing programs. The overarching goal of the iAAMCS is to increase the number of African-Americans obtaining graduate computing degrees leading to an increase in the number of African-American researchers in the academy, government, and industry. IAAMCS will further its role as a national resource for African Americans in computing and serve as an information, communication, networking, and evaluation community for African Americans who are either considering an advanced degree in computing or enrolled in a graduate computing program. As an alliance, iAAMCS will bring together mentors, advisors, and subject matter experts in an effort to provide support, mentoring, information, opportunities, and networking to its members. Those participants directly impacted by IAAMCS include African American computing undergraduates who are interested in graduate school, African American computing graduate students, CISE PIs, CS departments, BPC researchers, African American CS faculty, and HBCU CS faculty. The goals for this alliance extension include: 1) Increase in African American students in graduate computing programs; 2) Increase in African American recipients of graduate degrees in computing; 3) Increase the number of African Americans who enter the professoriate; 4) Increase the number of African Americans who enter careers that utilize an advanced degree in computing; 5) Longitudinal data collection and evaluation for national dissemination; 6) Support CISE PIs and CS Departments looking to support BPC efforts; and 7) Support HBCU and African American computer science faculty. iAAMCS activities will all fall in the categories of Original Programming, Core Research, Platform Management, and Event Participation. Through significant, creative integrations using YouTube and LinkedIn, IAAMCS plans to expand the reach of students who can benefit from its programming.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

莫尔豪斯学院、佛罗里达大学、奥本大学和美国研究院将合作扩展非裔美国人计算机科学指导研究所（iAAMCS，发音为“i am cs”）。 iAAMCS 是计算社区的国家资源，并强调将指导作为增加非裔美国人参与计算的主要策略。 iAAMCS 致力于为非裔美国研究人员建立一个生态系统，这些研究人员通过 iAAMCS 活动相互联系，这些活动包括：奖学金写作训练营、未来教师和研究科学家指导计划、高等教育中黑人计算机状况年度报告以及黑人学生匹配注册表。 iAAMCS 将为计算机项目中的非洲裔美国学生开发和传播指导内容资源和指南。 iAAMCS 的总体目标是增加获得计算机研究生学位的非裔美国人数量，从而增加学术界、政府和工业界的非裔美国研究人员数量。 IAAMCS 将进一步发挥其作为非裔美国人计算机领域国家资源的作用，并为正在考虑攻读计算机高级学位或参加计算机研究生课程的非裔美国人提供信息、通信、网络和评估社区。作为一个联盟，iAAMCS 将汇集导师、顾问和主题专家，努力为其成员提供支持、指导、信息、机会和网络。受IAAMCS直接影响的参与者包括对研究生院感兴趣的非裔美国计算机本科生、非裔美国计算机研究生、CISE PI、CS部门、BPC研究人员、非裔美国CS教师和HBCU CS教师。该联盟扩展的目标包括： 1) 增加计算机研究生课程中非裔美国学生的数量； 2) 获得计算机研究生学位的非裔美国人数量增加； 3）增加进入教授职位的非裔美国人数量； 4）增加利用计算机高级学位进入职业的非裔美国人数量； 5）全国传播的纵向数据收集和评估； 6) 支持 CISE PI 和 CS 部门寻求支持 BPC 工作； 7) 支持 HBCU 和非裔美国计算机科学教师。 iAAMCS 活动将全部分为原创编程、核心研究、平台管理和活动参与等类别。 通过使用 YouTube 和 LinkedIn 进行重大、创造性的整合，IAAMCS 计划扩大可以从其项目中受益的学生的影响范围。该奖项反映了 NSF 的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
