As an international student, Parmar sought University Career Center support in navigating the sponsorship process for a summer internship.
Why did you decide to study computer science at UMD? I initially enrolled at UMD as a mechanical engineering major, but the computer science (CS) program here really drew me in. After giving it a...read more
Twenty-three students from across the U.S. are gaining invaluable research skills at the University of Maryland this summer through a hands-on program sponsored by the National Science Foundation. The Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) program—now...read more
GAMA processes non-speech sounds and non-verbal speech to provide detailed responses.
Imagine robots that can listen to every sound and interpret its meaning, from the rustling of leaves to the hum of a distant engine. Envision machines that not only recognize spoken words but also understand...read more
Bahar Asgari explores flexible, dynamic architectures for high-performance computers.
Bahar Asgari thinks that high-performance supercomputers (HPCs) could run far more efficiently and consume less energy. That’s particularly possible when crunching sparse datasets — ones with many zeros or empty values — that are often...read more
Researchers’ robotic system aims to improve autonomy for people with mobility issues.
As an undergraduate engineering student in Delhi, India, Amisha Bhaskar took a field trip to a facility for disabled war veterans and met a man who had lost both hands. When she asked him what...read more
The camera mimics the involuntary movements of the human eye to create sharper, more accurate images for robots, smartphones and other image-capturing devices.
A team led by University of Maryland computer scientists invented a camera mechanism that improves how robots see and react to the world around them. Inspired by how the human eye works, their innovative camera...read more
