OU Computer Science Graduate Fellowships

The School of Computer Science at the University of Oklahoma
has 10 fellowships available for highly motivated, new PhD students.
Fellowships last up to 6 years and include annual stipends of at least
$21,000, professional development funds for each year, full tuition
waivers, and health insurance. Fellowships in theory, artificial
intelligence, machine learning, robotics, data mining, programming
languages, and other areas of CS are available. The university and the College of Engineering are making substantial investments in the School of Computer Science. With seven faculty hires in the past six years, we are growing rapidly while retaining the highest quality. Our 15 faculty
include two IEEE Fellows, an ACM Fellow, a Presidential Professor, a
George Lynn Cross Research Professor, a Hitachi Chair, and an NSF
Career Award Winner. In addition, our faculty have received recognition
including a Provost's Award for Outstanding Academic Advising, a
Distinguished Lectureship in Engineering, and membership in Tau Beta
Pi, Eta Kappa Nu, and Phi Kappa Phi honor societies.
Fellows will be be housed along with the School of Computer Science in the new state-of-the-art Devon Energy Hall when it is completed in 2007. In addition, the School of Computer Science has research lab space in the showcase Stephenson Research and Technology Center.
