Why you should attend: The Research Open House will provide you with information on the research activities and graduate program of the Department of Computer Science and Engineering (CSE). You will see demonstrations of some of our ongoing research projects, and you will have opportunities to talk with current graduate students and faculty. Special sessions will be held where you can interact with current graduate students to learn tips for how to apply to graduate school and what graduate student life is like.

Who Should Attend? Prospective CSE graduate students, students and faculty from other colleges and universities, MSU undergraduates considering graduate school, and anyone else would like to learn more about the research being conducted in the CSE Department.
