Ph.D. Specializations

Students admitted to the Ph.D. Program in Computer Science may choose to further specialize in one of three tracks: Algorithms, Combinatorics, and Optimization (ACO); Neural Basis of Cognition (NBC); and Pure and Applied Logic (PAL). These students must also be separately admitted to those programs; they fulfill the same basic requirements as regular Ph.D. students in Computer Science but have additional requirements to fulfill. Brochures and catalogs for all three specialized programs are available as separate documents from the Associate Department Head's office.
