Georgia General Assembly examines artificial intelligence
“Artificial intelligence is changing the trajectory of health care in this state and throughout the country,” says Augusta University President Russell T. Keen.
In line with Augusta University's mission to become a top-tier research institution, School of Computer and Cyber Sciences faculty members are conducting research to stay one step ahead of today's ever-changing, technology-driven society. Research is a central component of both our new Computer and Cyber Sciences PhD program and the thesis track of the MS, Computer Science program. In addition, with most of our faculty pursuing research, there is an excellent opportunity for undergraduate students to apply their knowledge from the classroom to create solutions in each of our research faculty's research foci. The Computer Science Colloquium Series, held on Fridays, offers students an opportunity to learn about cutting-edge research subjects in the areas of Computer Science, Information Technology and Cybersecurity.
Research areas of interest include foundations of distributed and parallel computing
(including modeling and algorithms), reliability, security and privacy of distributed
computing and network communication, High Performance Computing and distributed systems
and applications including blockchains and IoT.
Research areas of interest include system security across cloud, embedded and IoT
devices, cryptography and quantum cryptography, and forensics security.
Research areas of interest include foundations of programming languages, interactive
theorem proving, categorical logic, reversible computing, program optimization, program
analysis and secure programming.
Research areas of interest for the Information Systems research group include risk-based
choices in technology use, human factors in cybersecurity, information disclosure,
text mining, information systems project management, strategy and governance.
Research areas of interest include intelligent cyber-physical control systems, data
extraction and analytics on the edge, embedded systems security and security and privacy
in IoT devices.
Research areas of interest for the AI, ML, and Data Science group include developing
advanced algorithms and deep learning techniques to enhance cybersecurity through
sophisticated threat detection, automated responses, and predictive analytics.
The School of Computer and Cyber Sciences believes that diverse teams develop more creative solutions together. We partner with other schools across Augusta University's campus, including the Medical College of Georgia, as well as other industry partners in various research endeavors in computing, information systems and security fields.

Lance Hunter, PhD, says data centers currently use an estimated 1% to 2% of power worldwide, and those energy demands could grow 160% by 2030.
The idea for “EyeDentity” was inspired by a touching moment with Song’s daughter who said, "I see me in your eyes!"
“Presenting provided an unparalleled platform to share cutting-edge research and foster collaboration between military, government and industry professionals."
