Senior Genevieve Hudak was recently named
Honorable Mention for the 2004 CRA Outstanding Student Award:
CRA's Outstanding Undergraduate Award program recognizes undergraduate students
who show outstanding research potential in an area of computing research.
Nominees must attend a university or college located in the United States or
Canada, and must be nominated by the department chair or a faculty member. Each
department may nominate a total of two male and two female candidates.
Preference is given to students in their senior year (or the equivalent). In
addition to evidence of significant research contributions, the committee also
considers the student's academic record and service to the community.
A cash prize of $1,000 is awarded to each of two undergraduate students,
one female and one male, who are majoring in computer science, computer
engineering, or an equivalent program. A number of other outstanding candidates
are recognized with Honorable Mention. The awards are presented at one of the
major computing research conferences sponsored by CRA, ACM, the IEEE Computer
Society, SIAM, AAAI, or USENIX. The two first-prize winners receive financial
assistance toward their travel to the conference. CRA encourages home
departments to provide similar assistance to other students who are recognized.
For more information on the program, including lists of current and past award
winners, see
