@ the intersection of humans and computation
Student-Led research
At our research lab we focus on enabling the students to pursue their own ideas and passions in Computer Science. The expectation is that students take on multi-semester projects and develop their research ideas into software, simulations, experiments, presentations, professional publications, and grant proposals.
