Atri Rudra has been named the first Katherine Johnson Chair in Artificial Intelligence, which was established by a generous gift from computer science alums D. Sivakumar, PhD ’96, and Uma Mahadevan, PhD ’98.

Eleven faculty members from the School of Engineering and Applied Sciences were among those recognized at the University at Buffalo’s Celebration of Faculty and Staff Academic Excellence.

Four teams of students presented their ideas as part of the Impossible Project: Making Computing Anti-Racist Student Solution Competition, which was held on February 9, 2022, in Davis Hall.

The presentations, part of an effort to create a more holistic computer science education at UB, will take place Wednesday.
