The Division of Research and Economic Development
(DORED) at North Carolina A&T State University in
conjunction with Lead Principal Investigator Dr.
Cameron Seay, in the College of Science and Technology,
has secured a federal contract through the U.S.
Department of Labor. |
The five-year contract, with a value of $7.5 million,
will be utilized to increase the numbers of
underrepresented minorities and women in science,
technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) related
fields. The contract will  focus
specifically on information technology as it relates to
talent development for mainframe computers, on which the
global economy depends. The term “mainframe computer”
is usually associated with the IBM Corporation. With the
advent and wide availability of micro-computing in the
1980s and beyond, mainframes were targeted for
extinction because of their immense size and cost.
While smaller computers with tremendous power have
indeed revolutionized information technology, the
heaviest input/output functions such as transaction
processing, airline reservations and cellular signal
routing are still left to the heavy lifters: mainframe
computers. Although these big workhorses still play a
vital role in the technology spectrum, the United
