African Americans represent 1.3% of all computing sciences faculty in PhD-granting departments, underscoring the severe underrepresentation of Black/African American tenure-track faculty in computing (CRA, 2012). The Future Faculty/Research Scientist Mentoring (FFRM) program, funded by the National Science Foundation, was found to be an effective strategy in increasing the number of tenure track faculty hires by 11% (Charleston & Jackson, 2011). This manuscript describes a new program, the Institute for African American Mentoring in Computer Sciences (iAAMCS), which capitalizes on the successes of the FFRM and other mentoring models. The iAAMCS endeavors to improve faculty representation through a national mentoring model.
