Students enrolled in the research project track get to collaborate within research laboratories across our four primary innovation-focused domains.

They'll collaborate directly with master's candidates, doctoral researchers, postdoctoral fellows, and faculty to develop projects showcasing new applications of current technologies. These initiatives might also explore fields with significant educational potential.

This specialized track is designed for computer science undergraduates. Some participants may need to complete up to three supplementary undergraduate courses during their initial terms to address specific knowledge gaps.
The curriculum involves 3 core courses, 5 electives, and a research component. Each student conducts a faculty-supervised research project, acquiring hands-on expertise within an active research environment. Project work typically commences in the program's third term.
