Graduate Programs

In the computer science department at Dartmouth, graduate students interact closely with world-class researchers in a tight-knit, collegial environment that provides abundant opportunities for both intra- and interdisciplinary research. We actively collaborate with researchers in engineering, business, mathematics, the arts, biology, sociology, and medicine. Our department also boasts small class sizes, award-winning instructors, and a lively departmental spirit.

The Programs

Our doctoral program is a full-time program. Admitted doctoral students have only the Ph.D. as their degree objective, and they have guaranteed funding for up to five years. Our masters program is a full-time M.S. program with a research component. All students have access to state-of-art facilities and opportunities to start research the first year.
