women are under-represented.INTRODUCTIONExtension Services for Undergraduate Programs (ES-UP) at the National Center for Women &Information Technology (NCWIT) employs a multi-pronged, systemic approach to increasing theenrollment and retention of women in undergraduate computing departments. ES-UP advocatesimproving the environment for all students using research-based strategies that correspond to thesix components of the NCWIT ES-UP Systemic Change Model. The components include creatinga Recruiting Strategic Plan; retaining students with Inclusive Pedagogy, Curriculum, and StudentSupport; securing appropriate Institutional Policies and Support; and finally, implementing acomprehensive Evaluation and Tracking System (See Figure 1.)Figure 1
