What's inside NYU CS Wiki

  1. Overview of Google Summer of Code (GSoC)

    Google Summer of Code (GSoC) is an annual open-source program that connects mentors from popular open-source projects with contributors. Participants who successfully complete their contributions receive a stipend. It is recommended for developers looking to gain experience with large-scale open-source software development during the summer.

  2. Overview of the Google Summer of Code (GSoC) program

    Google Summer of Code (GSoC) is an annual open-source program that connects contributors with mentors from large, popular open-source projects. Participants who successfully complete their contributions receive a stipend. It is a recommended way for developers to gain experience contributing to large-scale software projects.

  3. Overview of the Holodeck: High Speed Research Network (HSRN) VIP

    The Holodeck: High Speed Research Network (HSRN) VIP is a research-oriented, student-led group at NYU focused on maintaining, improving, and extending the dedicated fiber optic network connecting the Brooklyn, Lower Manhattan, and Midtown campuses. Unlike competition-based VIPs, HSRN focuses on Research Technology Infrastructure and building software within a research environment. Current and past projects include:

    • Custom pub/sub servers
    • High speed parallel file systems
    • AI-powered network intrusion detection systems
    • Real-time AI/VR applications

  4. Overview of HackNYU Hackathon

    HackNYU is a 48-hour global hackathon hosted by New York University (NYU). It serves as a venue for participants to demonstrate their technical abilities and problem-solving skills.

  5. Overview of the Processor Design VIP project

    The Processor Design project focuses on the full lifecycle of microprocessor development, moving from ideation through RTL design, verification, synthesis, and layout, ending with tapeout and validation in real silicon. The project utilizes a RISC-V-32I architecture. Students begin with onboarding labs to learn Verilog and C++ development before specializing in specific areas of the tech stack, such as the CPU, memory, AMBA (Advanced Microcontroller Bus Architecture), simulator, or onboarding/documentation.

  6. Overview of the Contactless Robotics VIP team

    Contactless Robotics (formerly known as Flexible AI-enabled Mechatronic Systems or FAMS) is a non-competition-based robotics team focused on developing interactive robotic systems for industrial and educational applications. The team's primary technical focus is on the application of deep learning within autonomous vehicles.

  7. Explore AI and Robotics research at CILVR

    The CILVR Lab (Computational Intelligence, Learning, Vision, and Robotics) focuses on AI, machine learning, computer perception, natural language understanding, robotics, and healthcare. Affiliated groups include ML² (Machine Learning for Language), which specializes in state-of-the-art NLP methods, and the Human & Machine Learning Lab, which studies the ingredients of flexible human-like intelligence.

  8. Explore Computation & Cognition Lab for human intelligence research

    The Computation & Cognition Lab studies everyday human intelligence to understand why humans outperform current AI (robots, virtual assistants) and how to narrow that gap.

  9. Access the NYU Game Center and Game Library

    The NYU Game Center is located on the 6th floor of 370 Jay Street, Brooklyn. It provides resources for game design students and enthusiasts, including a Game Library with video games (1970s to present), board games for borrowing, and high-performance gaming computers. While associated with the Tisch School of the Arts BFA/MFA in Game Design, many resources are open to all NYU students.

    Operating Hours:

    • Monday-Friday: 9:00am - 10:00pm
    • Saturday-Sunday: 12:00pm - 8:00pm

  10. Explore NYU Music Experience Design Lab (MusEDLab) for creative technology

    MusEDLab designs technologies and experiences for music making and creative learning, focusing on lowering barriers to creative expression across the lifespan.

  11. Understand TA and Tutoring opportunities at NYU CAS and Tandon

    Teaching Assistant (TA) and tutoring roles provide opportunities to support professors and students while receiving compensation. Workloads typically range from 5 to 20 hours per week.

    Key distinctions by school:

    • CAS: Grading and tutoring roles are generally more available for undergraduates; TA positions are primarily for graduate students.
    • Tandon: TA positions are more flexible and open to both undergraduate and graduate students, depending on the course.

    International students should verify their allowable working hour limits before applying.

  12. Explore Music and Audio Research Laboratory (MARL) for sound and AI

    MARL is an interdisciplinary center focusing on the cognitive and neural mechanisms of music processing, acoustic data retrieval, and AI applications in health, accessibility, and education.
