The Computer Science Department at the University of California, Santa
Barbara (UCSB) is inviting applications for its PhD and MS programs
(application deadline is December 15th). The PhD positions are funded by
the Department using research assistantships (RA), teaching assistantships
(TA) and fellowships (including a new IGERT fellowship on network science,
http://networkscience.igert.ucsb.edu), and cover living and educational
expenses of admitted students. Students can apply to the PhD program
directly after obtaining their undergraduate degrees in computer science or
in a related field of science or engineering. MS students are not guaranteed
funding but many are hired as TAs and some transition to the PhD program.
The Computer Science Department at UCSB is a young, energetic, and dynamic
department, world renowned for its strong research program and award winning
faculty. Our rankings have climbed faster than any other department over
the last several years. Recent ranking of the graduate programs by the
National Research Council (NRC) puts our department in the top ten in the
United States (see http://www.cs.ucsb.edu/department/rankings/), in the
top two of University of California campuses, and in the top two of US
public universities.
UCSB is one of the top research universities in the world. In addition
to its academic excellence, UCSB is a beautiful place with exceedingly
friendly staff, students, and faculty.
Energetic and ambitious students who are enthusiastic about computer science
and who want to shape the future of computing by conducting research on the
frontiers of our discipline are encouraged to apply to our graduate program.
