The Manning College of Information and Computer Sciences at UMass Amherst is a top-tier institution dedicated to the common good.
Bhawana Chhaglani recently successfully defended her #ManningCICS PhD dissertation, “Privacy-aware Audio Sensing Systems for Health and Wellness,” which explores how microphones in everyday devices can be used to monitor and improve environmental and human health without sacrificing privacy.
Nelson Evbarunegbe recently defended his #ManningCICS PhD dissertation on using machine learning to predict molecular properties. Using the bacterium that causes TB as a case study, he developed tools to help identify promising drug candidates more efficiently. Congratulations, Nelson!
#ManningCICS student Isik Ulusan ’27 created Complexle, a Wordle-like game in which players put their theoretical computer science knowledge to the test, using six tries to guess a mystery complexity class from a series of hints. Play the latest version of Complexle: vist.ly/5gvtr
