At the 计算机学院, there are many opportunities for both undergraduate and 研究生从事研究工作.

本科

计算机本科生研究经历(CURE)
For current undergraduate students, SoC provides a limited number of 学期-long 支持研究工作的助教奖学金. 每周十个小时,连续十周,学生们 从事由教师指导的研究项目是有报酬的吗. 除了支持, the students obtain knowledge about cutting edge issues, allowing them to further differentiate themselves from others when applying for positions within both the workforce 还有研究生院.
暑期本科生研究奖学金(SURF)

的 University provides fellowships that cover a summer stipend and modest supplies for undergraduate students who wish to conduct research with a faculty member over 这个夏天.  For more information about this competitive program, please visit the 本科生研究办公室.

 

▼荣誉论文

参加美国荣誉课程的学生[http://www].erebyaparis.com/colleges/honors/] are required to complete, as the culmination of their academic experience at USA, 完成一项荣誉高级项目并完成一篇论文. 本方案要求设计 to provide the student an opportunity to apply the knowledge base and tools of their discipline in a mentored scholarly exploration suitable to the student's academic 兴趣及背景. 大多数项目至少需要一年的时间. 在学校 的计算, the required courses are the two-course Senior Project Sequence (CIS 497及CIS 498).

▼本科生定向学习

本科 students can work closely with a faculty member in a research laboratory 在定向研究中的特定项目(CIS 494)

▼高级项目

Senior Design (CIS 497) is a capstone project class taken by graduating seniors in 信息系统, Information 技术, and 计算机科学 within the School 的计算. In addition to other class requirements, students work in teams to complete 为项目客户提供的一个学期的计算项目. 团队将创建文档 for their project as well as do a presentation of their results at the end of the 学期.

研究生 

研究生助教奖学金
SoC offers a limited number of graduate assistantships which provide financial support (tuition plus stipend) in return for the student providing 20 hours of work. 根据 on the assistantship, this work may include grading, teaching and/or research.
▼研究生指导学习
研究生 students can work closely with a faculty member in a research laboratory 在指导研究中的特定项目(CIS 594或CIS 694).
硕士论文/博士论文
学生 pursuing a Masters in Computer and Information Sciences will complete a Masters 原创性研究论文. 博士课程的学生将完成一篇论文. With their dissertation, students develop the ability to conduct advanced research 并为学科贡献新知识.


计算机科学学生研究的例子

▼边信道开发与对策

Side-channels are unintended signal paths that can leak critical information.  In a cryptographic device, electromagnetic and power side-channels can reveal secret 键控材料. We are currently developing countermeasures to protect cryptographic implementations using reconfigurable Field Programmable Gate Arrays.  我们也 doing research into using thermal side-channels within a chip die to detect malicious software due to its change in the processing load and related heat signature.

动作规则挖掘

Action rules are constructs that provide guidance on what actions (i.e. 更改 attribute values) should be made to convert a set of objects from an undesirable state 更理想的状态. 例如,假设您正在寻求确定什么 可以做些什么来减少交通事故的严重程度. 潜在行为规则可以 state, if you add streetlights to a street with none, a significant number of accidents that result in severe injury would be reduced to accidents classified as minor. 当前的 research includes the development of more efficient and effective algorithms for discovering 操作规则.

▼医疗器械安全研究

Objectives include examining the electronic devices used in both training healthcare 工作人员和为病人提供治疗. 识别安全漏洞 in medical devices and working with healthcare providers and manufacturers to mitigate risk using various sources and a risk management perspective, we developed a health 信息安全和隐私威胁树. 我们定义了25个节点(威胁),破坏 them down into key risk-related data attributes: threat source and action, the health 信息资产及其脆弱性,以及潜在的控制. 已识别的威胁 related to the disclosure of health information by insiders and outsiders, and the manipulation of health information by vandalism, loss, or corruption of data. 的 construction of such a threat catalog is argued to be useful for risk assessment and 为公共医疗保健政策提供信息.
