The CI Compass Fellowship Program (CICF) was developed to broaden undergraduate student participation in cyberinfrastructure (CI) research, development, and operations. CICF is a distinctive program for students pursuing studies in computer science, information science, data science, and other related fields. During year 1, CICF had six students from two institutions. During year 2, CICF had fourteen students from nine institutions. This poster details CICF development and summarizes its impact.
