The Graduate Research Day is the revival of the Graduate Research Conference. All graduate students in the Department of Computer Science are invited to submit an abstract and poster of their research work and virtually attend the event. This year's program will be held virtually due to COVID-19, and will feature oral presentations, live Q&A and a keynote talk. A poster booklet will also be released at the conference. For submission details and instructions please see our call. We seek high-quality submissions based on your current/recent research work and hope to put together an exciting day of presentations and prizes for graduate students and faculty!

Register for the event by filling out this form. The registration deadline is February 25 at 11:59 pm.

Check out our event flyer here. You can also check out past years' GRD here.

This year we're providing some New Computer Science building-themed Zoom backgrounds for you to use during the event!

You can view the event schedule here. You can also find links to each student's poster by either clicking on their talk title or scrolling to the list at the bottom of the page.

The 2021 Graduate Research Day has concluded. Please view the poster booklet to see presented work.

Congratulations to our award winners!
