Home Educating the next generation’s leaders and pushing the frontiers of the field of computer science through research that has lasting impact. Academics Bachelor's Programs The Computer Science Department admits students to an undergraduate program that you are guaranteed to find rigorous and dedicated to the real-world training and practical problem solving that has been the hallmark of computer science education at CMU since its inception. See the Programs Admissions Info Master's Programs We offer three distinct master’s options for students who have completed (or will complete) a bachelor’s degree and want to extend their training in computer science. Our largest program is the M.S. in Computer Science, which allows students to work with their academic advisor to create their own course of study. See the Programs Admissions Info Doctoral Programs Carnegie Mellon's Ph.D. in Computer Science is, above all, a research degree. We certify that our students have a broad foundation and awareness of core concepts in computer science, have advanced the field by performing significant original research and have reported that work in a scholarly fashion. See the Programs Admissions Info CSD Research Areas Research in the Computer Science Department is sustained by the strong foundations of our history. Building on that groundwork we are fearless in pushing the frontiers of our field and acting quickly to pursue new directions.Faculty and Undergraduate ResearchCSD PhD Blog Artificial Intelligence Graphics Programming Languages Security Systems Theory Upcoming CSD Events More CSD Events Oct 20 12PM - 1PM CyLab Seminar - Faculty Speakers Faculty Speakers Towards a Safe, Secure, and Privacy-Preserving Robotics Ecosystem In Person and Virtual - ET Simmons Auditorium B, Tepper Building and Zoom Add event to Google Add event to iCal Oct 20 4:30pm - 5:30pm Database Seminar - Ian Cook IAN COOK Where We're Going, We Don't Need Rows: Columnar Data Connectivity with ADBC Virtual Presentation - ET Remote Access - Zoom Add event to Google Add event to iCal Oct 22 10AM - 11:30am 5th Year MSCS Thesis Presentation - Christopher Crawford CHRISTOPHER CRAWFORD Morphologically-Informed Tokenizers for Languages with Non-Concatenative Morphology In Person Reddy Conference Room, Gates Hillman 4405 Add event to Google Add event to iCal Latest News Peacocks Eating Ice Cream: CMU Philosophers Teaching AI to Ask 'Why?'
