博士申请|美国德州大学达拉斯分校VR/AR、HCI、图形学方向招收2024全奖博士生

The University of Texas at Dallas (UT Dallas) is a leading research institution located in the heart of Richardson, Texas. As a hub of innovation and excellence, UT Dallas offers a dynamic and collaborative academic environment for students and faculty. The Department of Computer Science at UT Dallas is known for its cutting-edge research, state-of-the-art facilities, and commitment to advancing knowledge in various fields of computer science.
 
There are several reasons why you should get your PhD degree in Computer Science from UT Dallas. First and foremost, we have superb faculty who are world-renowned for their research in emerging areas such as AI, Machine Learning, Natural Language Processing, Cyber Security, Software Engineering, Data Science, Internet of Things (IoT), etc. Our faculty members have received many best paper awards at various conferences, as well as many test-of-time awards, where a research paper is recognized for its long-lasting impact on the field. Seventeen of our faculty members (as of 2023) hold the prestigious National Science Foundation CAREER award—given to promising young assistant professor through a nationwide competition each year.
 
Second, we have an incredible system of support for our PhD students. In their first semester, all PhD students are required to take a course where they learn what research and creativity are all about, what is involved in doing a PhD, and how one can be a successful PhD student? Students get their first taste of writing a large research paper – a survey of research in their area of interest – in this introductory class. The department also organizes a weekly mixer of faculty and PhD students, where each week, one research lab briefly introduces itself and gives an overview of its research projects. The lab also provides refreshments for the mixer. In addition, the department runs a reward program, where if a group publishes a paper in a top CS conference, it gets $1,500 towards travel expenses to that conference. In addition, there are weekly seminars explicitly organized for graduate students to attend so they can learn about cutting-edge research in computer science. There are other opportunities, as well. For example, teaching in the summer camps that the CS department organizes for high school students, various hackathons and programming competitions, as well as many other academic and scholarly activities. The environment in the CS Department is exceptionally collegial and supportive of PhD students. PhD students are treated as an integral part of the community of scholars in the CS Department.
 
Third, almost all our PhD students are fully supported. They also have incredible internship opportunities available to them in the later part of their PhD, especially if they plan to pursue a career in industry.
