Research Facilities

Students gather in Bernstein Hall common space
Students gather in Bernstein Hall for research, collaboration, and even the occasional nap.

Faculty and student research is supported by access to sophisticated computing facilities and resources. This begins with the department’s “student work studio” in Bernstein Hall, a flexible and comfortable hub for research activity in the summer and the center of student activity during the semester. Bernstein Hall is also home to labs, project rooms, makerspaces, and the department’s machine room, which houses the computational equipment used in research by faculty and students.

Research Topics

Computer science faculty members are continually working to advance research in their specialties. Students with interest in a particular specialty may contact the faculty member to learn more.
