Computer Science at Johns Hopkins University (CS@JHU) is a diverse, collaborative, and intensely research-focused department. Although small, the faculty represent a broad spectrum of disciplines encompassing core computer science and several cross-disciplinary application areas including: Computational Biology and Medicine; Information Security; Machine Learning &Data Intensive Computing; Robotics, Vision &Graphics; Speech &Language Processing; Systems; and Theory &Programming Languages. Many CS faculty members have extra-departmental ties through several research centers, including LCSR, the CISST ERC, IDIES, CLSP, and the HLT COE. Computer Science collaborates within the Whiting School of Engineering (primarily with Electrical and Computer Engineering and with Mechanical Engineering, and to a lesser extent withBiomedical Engineering) and between divisions (primarily with Krieger School of Arts and Sciences, the School of Medicine and the Applied Physics Lab).
The department offers a full spectrum of undergraduate and graduate studies, and our graduates are successful at landing jobs in major companies and universities around the world. In addition, many graduates have started their own companies both here in the Baltimore-Washington area, as well as in other major tech centers. One of the qualities that sets CS@JHU apart is the flexibility of our program and the individualized attention that our students are given through faculty advising, independent studies and undergraduate research opportunities.
