Research Seminar in Computer Science

Catalog description

The research seminar provides students with an overview of the diverse multidisciplinary research areas that capture the interest and fascination of NYUAD computer scientists and others in related fields. Through exposure to NYUAD faculty research, students identify areas of common interest to both faculty and students, for their own capstone research, and develop and write an in-depth research proposal over the course of the semester. The final capstone proposal is due at the end of the seminar series so that students can begin the Capstone Project in Computer Science. All Computer Science majors are required to take the research seminar during the spring semester of their third year, and be in NYU Abu Dhabi. Students who have chosen Computer Science as their secondary major do not need to complete the research seminar course; students must instead take two computer science elective courses which are not research courses.
