Welcome to the Department of Computer Science at the University at Albany! Our first-rate programs attract students and faculty from across the globe, who together comprise a rich and vibrant community of scholars making their mark in the ever-evolving software industry. While mastering computer science theory and practice, students also have the opportunity to work with world-class faculty on cutting-edge research. Our department is part of a Tier 1 research university located in the heart of Tech Valley in New York, affording our students the opportunity to engage in exciting internships. We invite you to learn about our educational programs, explore our research projects, and ask questions. CS: Where logic sparks imagination!
More than 40 researchers from the University at Albany have been ranked among the world’s top researchers, according to a Stanford University study published annually through Elsevier.
The projects are the first five funded through the Center for Emerging Artificial Intelligence Systems (CEAIS), a $20 million UAlbany-IBM research collaboration announced last year by Gov. Kathy Hochul that included the installation of state-of-the-art prototype IBM AI hardware at UAlbany.
UAlbany College of Nanotechnology, Science, and Engineering (CNSE) students Kevin Reyes, William Grice and Jadyn Lee joined with sixty students from around the world to learn directly from leading specialists about the evolution of the semiconductor and photonics industries at the Eindhoven Semicon Summer School in August in Eindhoven, Netherlands.
CNSE is welcoming students from throughout the Capital Region on Saturday, November 23, to STEM and Nanotechnology Family Day, providing a glimpse of cutting edge science and technology that is being developed right here in upstate New York. The event marks the culmination of NANOvember, the month-long celebration of how nanotechnology is making a difference in our lives now and in the future.
UAlbany Associate Professor of Computer Science Pradeep Atrey and doctoral student Omkar Kulkarni are at work trying to create a better virtual photo editor. Combining techniques of computer vision with machine learning, Atrey and Kulkarni have developed an innovative iOS application designed to improve the quality of group photos.
