Udall Center of Excellence in Parkinson s Disease Research by the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS). The new $9.2 million award brings together researchers from industry and multiple academic institutions to focus on the development of digital tools to enhance understanding of the disease, engage broad populations in research, and accelerate the development of new treatments for Parkinson s disease.Read MoreDiversity in Computer ScienceFor many decades, the diversity in computer science nationally has been disproportionally lower than in other science disciplines. The effort to increase our diversity in Computer Science has been energized by our participation in BRAID . We have graduated 34% female for the last two graduating classes, nearly double the national average graduation rates. Our ability to send a greater number of our students to the Grace Hopper Conference for Women in Technology as well as additional diversity conferences each year has been directly related to our part in the BRAID initiative. Computer Science students continue to build a community that encourages women and underrepresented minorities to pursue studies in Computer Science. Here are some additional resources for diversity information at Rochester:Society of Hispanic Professional Engineers (SHPE)National Society of Black Engineers (NSBE)Women in Computing at Rochester (URWiC) Why CSC?Computer science is a broad and in-demand field, influencing areas like health, entertainment, and big data.At the University of Rochester, our emphasis on cross-collaboration and elite undergraduate and graduate programs prepares our students for industry, research, and academic positions.Learn MoreRigorousAcademicsCutting-EdgeResearchPersonalAttentionWant more information about the Department of Computer Science?
