The Iribe Initiative for Inclusion and Diversity in Computing

The Iribe Initiative for Inclusion and Diversity in Computing was created in February 2019 with a $1 million gift from Brendan Iribe, University of Maryland alumnus and co-founder of the virtual reality company Oculus. The Initiative aims to increase diversity and foster a stronger environment of inclusion in the university’s Department of Computer Science.

This new initiative will support the following programs for UMD students: tutoring for required introductory computer science classes, computing-related student organization activities, a computer science inclusion speaker seminar series and funding to attend computing conferences. The Initiative will also support after-school programs and summer camps for elementary through high school students from all backgrounds.

The Initiative will expand on the successes of the Maryland Center for Women in Computing (MCWIC)—which has provided a variety of opportunities for female students at UMD and local K-12 schools to engage in computing activities since 2014—by offering programs for students of all backgrounds.
