Greetings, UC Merced provides students the University of California's distinctive world-class education, while adding a special blend of small academic programs, interdisciplinary research and personalized attention from award-winning faculty. UC Merced professors and researchers have acquired more than $185.7 million in grants and contracts, one of the highest per-capita in the country. With more than 400 graduate students and a rapidly growing graduate student population, it is no wonder UC Merced is attracting the best and brightest scholars from all over the world. UC Merced provides competitive financial support and resources. About 95 percent of our graduate students receive funding in the form of fellowships, teaching assistantships (TA), and graduate student researcher (GSR) assistantships. UC Merced’s graduate program in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science (M.S., Ph.D.) offers individualized, strongly research-oriented courses of study and allows students to pursue world-class cutting-edge research in computer science, leading to master’s and doctoral degrees. Current research topics include computational neuroscience, digital information processing and informatics, database design and development, mobile ad-hoc and sensor networks, cloud computing, distributed computing, cyber-security, cyber-physical systems, mechatronics, unmanned systems, algorithm design and testing, artificial intelligence and robotics, machine learning, computer graphics and animation, remote sensing, geoinformatics, computer vision, and image processing and analysis. Together with UC Berkeley, UC Davis and UC Santa Cruz, UC Merced is a part of the Center for Information Technology Research in the Interest of Society (CITRIS). EECS faculty and graduate students are involved in various activities and research projects supported by CITRIS. Research conducted at Electrical Engineering and Computer Science is highly cross-disciplinary and collaborative, involving faculty members from all three schools at UC Merced. I also encourage you to visit the Graduate Division’s web page, http://graduatedivision.ucmerced.edu, to learn more about our innovative academic programs, financial support, student services, professional development opportunities, and important information about the application process. While you’re there, explore our faculty pages to learn about the exciting research currently taking place. We look forward to seeing you join our graduate program in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science (M.S., Ph.D.). If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact me.
