This article advocates for government sponsored research internships for undergraduates, similar to the National Science Foundation's (NSF's) Research Experiences for Undergraduates program, collectively referred to as REU programs, as essential for promoting equity in computing education and research. It emphasizes that such programs offer vital research experience and opportunities for students who face institutional or financial barriers, and highlights how well-designed REUs with strategic recruitment, mentorship, and evaluation can significantly boost diversity and prepare students for advanced academic and professional paths. The article also calls for increased investment and support from faculty and industry to expand these valuable programs. |
