Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) research explores various domains such as scientific and medical visualization (including organism simulations, space weather forecasting, and neuroimaging for surgical preparation), computational guidance systems, technology-enhanced surgical education (incorporating movement analysis and tactile feedback), digital rehabilitation tools, immersive telepresence (featuring live image transformation and layer separation), analysis of satellite imagery, wayfinding technologies, and associated fields.
Our program provides academic courses and research projects across multiple specialties, such as AI, Data Management, Interactive Entertainment, Pattern Recognition, Autonomous Systems, Development Methodologies, Intelligent User Interfaces, Computational Biology, Network Architectures, Algorithm Design, Visual Computing, Image Processing, System Software, HCI, Network Infrastructure, and Digital Media.

Qualification Requirements
Applicants for the Ph.D. in Computing Science must have an M.Sc. degree in Computing Science or a related field. Deficiencies must be addressed by taking appropriate undergraduate courses. A 3.0 GPA is typically the minimum GPA for acceptance in an MSc or PhD program. However, we may consider slightly lower GPAs in exceptional circumstances or due to small discrepancies in international GPA conversion rates. Meeting the 3.0 GPA minimum requirement does not guarantee admission. Our department admissions process is highly competitive and the Admissions Committee often selects students with a 3.5 GPA or higher. Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL iBT, in-person or special at-home edition) - A minimum TOEFL score of 100 with a minimum score of 21 on each of the individual skill areas (internet-based), or equivalent. Academic International English Language Testing System (IELTS - Academic) - A minimum overall band score of 7.0 with a minimum score of 6.5 on each band.
