The RESET Project

Together we are resetting the tech culture to Represent Excel and Support Equity in Tech. The RESET Project works to support Black, Latina, and Native American (BLNA) students pursuing computing degrees at UMD. Through the use of career support, community building, and scholarships, we aim to increase the number of BLNA women graduating with computing degrees in hopes of diversifying the tech workforce. This program will be housed in the Iribe Initiative for Inclusion and Diversity in Computing (I4C) at UMD.
