The industrial attention given to BUCS research reflects our department's focus on cutting-edge topics, including networking, Internet, and the Web; security and cryptography; image and video computing; database technology; programming systems; and operating systems.

The goals of our IAP are to accelerate and streamline the interactions between faculty and industry colleagues; to increase the exposure of students to opportunities for internships and employment in leading established companies as well as in startups; and to facilitate the transfer of technology developed by department faculty. We believe that achieving these goals is in the interest of both our department and our IAP partners.
