Computer Science Student Opportunities
Internships
Recent internships for Computer Science students include:
- Battelle Labs
- Datatel
- IBM
- NASA
Research
Student research in Computer Science can include paid summer research through the Muskie Fellows program, along with course related research in CPSC 400 Programming Projects and CPSC 495 Computer Science Seminar.
Recent examples of paid summer research include Nick Bulinski's research into developing neural networks to deal with hidden information in game AI, Nicholas Rohozen and Phillip Krall's research into developing drones that can recognize human bodies partially obscured by debris in disaster situations, Sarah Hare's research into developing software useful in areas of intermittent connectivity for use in missions in Haiti, and Tanner Barnes '12 developing a cavern development simulator in conjunction with Associate Professor of Geology Eric Law and Assistant Professor of Computer Science Jay Shaffstall. Tanner's research led to a conference presentation at PyOhio.
Employment
The Computer Science department employs students to help professors grade, to assist in labs associated with Introduction to Computing, and to tutor in Computer Science courses.
