Laboratory faculty members participate in some Computer and Information Sciences Department activities and shared recreational activities. The laboratory provides financial support for students and fosters an intimate relationship among a small group of researchers working in closely-related areas and the graduate students they supervise. CIRL currently has openings for talented students. In the long term, we are committed to having no more than twice as many students as faculty members. An up to date introduction to each of the research areas in which CIRL members are working on.
