We realize that the high financial cost of obtaining a graduate degree is
prohibitive for many students, especially for foreign students. For this
reason, we actively seek opportunities to provide financial support to our
students. For example, last year our faculty were successful in getting
numerous grant proposals funded,
all of which provide research assistantships for students.
We currently provide financial support in the following forms:
- Research Assistantships (RA)
-
A research assistant works closely with one or more faculty in performing
research. Assistantships cover tuition and provide a stipend to cover
living and other expenses.
We typically have several RA opportunities available each fall.
Please directly contact the faculty whose research interests you.
- Teaching Assistantships (TA)
-
Teaching assistants teach or assist in teaching a course. Teaching
assistantships provide a stipend and full or partial tuition support
(depending on the assistantship).
- Fellowships
-
We help our students apply for and secure fellowships from foundations,
industry, and government.
- Internships
-
We help our students secure summer internships at leading high-tech
companies. Boulder County's large high-tech industry also provides
convenient local opportunities for students.
- Conference Travel Support
-
Both the Department of Computer Science and the Graduate School
provide multiple awards each year to support student attendance
at high-quality research conferences.
- Local Industry
-
Boulder County has a large and rapidly growing high-tech industry,
with companies such as
Oracle,
Hewlett-Packard,
IBM,
Seagate,
and
Level 3,
as well as smaller companies and startups providing additional
opportunities for our graduate students and faculty.
With occasional exceptions, the above opportunities are available to all
students, including international students.
