Computer Science Research Showcase

Friday, October 17, 2003, 11:00 am-12:30 pm
LC 102, Brooklyn Campus, Polytechnic University

The Computer and Information Science Department is hosting its Second Annual Research Showcase to present its research activities to interested students and other members of the Polytechnic community. The event consists of short informa l presentations (from 5 to 10 minutes each) by CIS faculty members about their research. All members of the Polytechnic community are invited to attend. Coffee and cookies will be served before the event.

The purpose of the event is to introduce new graduate students, as well as current graduate and undergraduate students, to the research activities in the department. This is also a great opportunity for students in the Othmer Honors, BS /MS Honors, and BS programs to learn about possible topics for MS Theses and individual Senior Projects, or other chances to participate in departmental research.
