Fordham University (New York City) has developed a unique Ph.D. program in Computer Science, tuned to the latest demands and opportunities of the field. Upon completion of the Ph.D. in Computer Science program, students will be able to demonstrate the fundamental, analytical, and computational knowledge and methodology needed to conduct original research and practical experiments in the foundations and theory of computer science, in software and systems, and in informatics and data analytics. They will also be able to apply computing and informatics methods and techniques to understand, analyze, and solve a variety of significant, real-world problems and issues in the cyber, physical, and social domains. Furthermore, they will be able to conduct original, high-quality, ethically informed, scientific research and publish in respected, peer-reviewed, journals and conferences. Lastly, they will be able to effectively instruct others in a variety of topics in Computer Science at the university level, addressing ethics, justice, diversity, and sustainability. This training and education means that graduates can pursue careers at the university level, but also research and leadership positions in industry and government and within the leading technology companies. A hallmark of the program is early involvement in research, within the first two years of the program. Students will have the opportunity to carry out research in machine learning and AI/robotics, big data analytics and informatics, data and information fusion, information and cyber security, and software engineering and systems.
