Overview

This is a very small, highly selective, four-semester program for students who wish to deepen their knowledge of computer science through advanced coursework, research, writing, and teaching.

The Computer Science program from Cornell University is ideal for self-motivated students who have expository skills, enjoy the research environment, and like working with undergraduates in introductory courses. Students in the program serve as teaching assistants and receive full tuition plus a stipend.

Learning Outcomes

Demonstrate knowledge at the undergraduate level of four core areas in computer science

Systems, AI, PL, and theory

Students should be able to solve problems in these four core areas at the undergraduate level.
