The varied nature of the faculty brings a wide variety of research interests to the program. Research strengths lie in algorithms, computational biology, computer architecture, computer graphics and visualization, computer systems design, database systems, computer security, computer networks, program specifications and verification, programming languages and compilers, parallel and distributed systems, operating systems, performance evaluation, scientific computation, and software engineering. Interdisciplinary research in computer science is encouraged. Preparation should normally include an undergraduate degree in computer science, or advanced computer science electives taken in conjunction with a degree in an allied field, such as electrical engineering or mathematics.

This program does not have multiple deadlines. Applications submitted after this time will not be reviewed and credit card payments of fees made after the application deadline will not be refunded.

This program is an interdisciplinary Graduate Group.
