[cosc-grad-students-list] iCORE Open House - Friday 9/23/22 1-3:30pm - NRC 2100

[King, Scott]

Students, Faculty, and Staff:


The innovation in computing research (iCORE) lab is hosting an Open House this Friday, September 23, 1:00PM - 3:30PM in. iCORE has recently moved into NRC 2100 and we would like to show off our new space and some ongoing research by graduate and undergraduate students working with iCORE.



A major goal of the event is to raise awareness of iCORE's opportunities for students, especially undergrads, to get involved with research. We have a variety of equipment including vehicles, sensors, cameras, and a huge number of single-board computers. While students can propose their own project ideas, they can also work on existing projects on teams with undergraduates, graduate students, and faculty. Demo stations at the event have hand-outs that describe the research area with a list of project ideas for students to get involved. In the past, students have even worked on class projects with iCORE support and resources.



Faculty are encouraged to attend the event to get an idea of what we do. iCORE was created as a place for computer science students to interact with researchers from other disciplines as well as with computer scientists.  Come see what projects we are capable of doing and discuss how you can involve computer science students in your projects.   Current students have worked with external collaborators including NASA, Agrilife, and AI2ES as well as faculty from most colleges and several institutes (CBI, HRI,  LSUUAC).



Graduate students of all disciplines are also encouraged to attend, even if they are already working on projects with other labs and faculty. iCORE is a connecting hub between computer science students and other disciplines and to provide a place for students to share ideas and support each other. The binding theme is that iCORE students are working with a computational problem, but iCORE members can be students from any discipline and iCORE faculty can be from any discipline.  iCORE activities include training workshops, journal paper reading groups, and an audience to get feedback for practice talks for upcoming conferences and defenses.
