Advance Notice of DARPA/AJPO Grant Program for Curriculum Enhancement The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, in cooperation with the Ada Joint Program Office, will soon be announcing a new grant program in support of undergraduate curriculum enhancement and innovation. Grants can support the development of new or revised courses in order to introduce Ada or software engineering or both into the courses. The grants can also support the acquisition of Ada compilers and support tools. A detailed announcement in the form of a brochure will be mailed to all United States college and university computer science/computer engineering department chairs about June 1, 1991. There will be a series of proposal closing dates and award dates, approximately every six months. It is possible that the first awards will be made in time for the fall 1991 academic term. Interested faculty should watch for the announcement and be prepared to act quickly. NOTE! DARPA has authorized me to make this post. I will also be able to post the full text of the announcement once it is available (approx. June 1). Please do not request further information; I have none!
