Intel Opportunity Scholar's Program The College of Computing and the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the Georgia Institute of Technology, and the Intel Corporation present the Georgia Tech-Intel Opportunity Scholar's Program. The goal of the Program is to support and encourage the academic success, retention, and ultimate graduation rates of underrepresented students in computer science and electrical and computer engineering. IOS began during the spring of 2003. Today, the program relies on the support of 18 Ph.D. students who mentor 50 underrepresented freshmen, sophomores, and juniors from the College of Computing and the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering. The program pairs the graduate mentors with three undergraduate students who conduct paid research under his or her guidance. We present our yearly research every spring at a banquet where Intel representatives visit their sponsored scholars. The program hosts three educational and developmental workshops per semester, it organizes weekly lab tours, it gives academic support through tutoring and mentoring and it networks the students with Intel. Two of our alumni have found jobs at Intel. Scholar Benefits
