Student in computer science and software engineering awarded invitation to graduate cohort for women

Nilanjana Raychawdhary, a second-year graduate student in computer science and software engineering, or CSSE, has an opportunity to expand existing research ideas through networking and learning from others by earning an invitation to the Computing Research Association-Widening Participating Graduate Cohort for Women, April 20-22, in San Francisco.

Attendees have the opportunity to interact with senior female computing-related researchers and professionals who will share pertinent information on graduate school survival skills and personal insights.

“By attending the special CRA-WP cohort, I hope to learn about the latest advancements and trends in the field of computer science research, particularly in my area of focus,” said Raychawdhary, who will join CSSE classmate and graduate student Prashamsa Pandey at the conference. “I would also like to connect with other researchers and experts in the field to expand my network and gain insights into different approaches and methodologies. Ultimately, I hope to bring back new knowledge and perspectives that I can apply to my research and education, helping me to further develop my skills and make meaningful contributions to the field.”
