+ Although sponsored by ACM at UTD, this scholarship is now managed fulled by the ECS + department. You can learn more about how to apply and thee process for receiving the + scholarship from the ECS Scholarships Page You can also find other relevant information + like scholarship deadlines and other criteria to be eligible to apply on the ECS + scholarships page as well. We insist that if you have questions you get in touch directly + with the ECS Scholarship Committee. Our team will be unable to resolve any queries you + have. +
++ Each year, this endowed scholarship will award one student $1k, qualifying it for + "competitive scholarship" status. This means that if you are an out of state or + international student, you may receive in-state tuition for that year. For this reason, we + highly encourage these demographics to apply. In addition to academic excellence, + applicants will be preferred if they have demonstrated engagement with any CS student + organization at UTD. Note that the scholarship is awarded by a committee appointed by the + Jonsson school, and not ACM UTD or Prof. John Cole (our faculty sponsor). Please do not + get in touch with us on questions regarding this scholarship. +
++ Our scholarship was inspired by the actions and leadership of Gopal Gupta (CS Dept Head + 2009-2020). During this time, the department grew immensely and is now the 3rd largest CS + department in the United States. In addition to fostering a culture of undergraduate + academic excellence, Dr. Gupta placed a large importance on the role of student + organizations within the department and the Erik Jonsson School of Engineering and + Computer Science more broadly. One graded assignment for all incoming freshmen in CS is + that they attend an event outside of class where they must talk to representatives from + many CS student organizations. Furthermore, Dr. Gupta encouraged students to listen in on + department meetings, provide feedback on programs within the department, and present goals + and events to faculty members. Finally, Dr. Gupta initiated efforts to start HackUTD, a + university hackathon, which has grown to be one of the largest in the U.S. +
++ We started the "Dr. Gopal Gupta Undergraduate Scholarship for Computer Science + established by ACM 2020" in honor of its namesake: Dr. Gopal Gupta served as the + Computer Science (CS) department head at UT Dallas from 2009-2020. +
