Research

Born out of Cornell University’s historic Faculty of Computing and Information Science and College of Engineering, Cornell Tech is the next iteration of the university’s 150 years of leadership in engineering and computer science. Our research excellence spans technical areas such as machine learning, human-centered computing, and cryptography as well as issue-focused studies of technology and society.

Cornell Tech’s top-ranked faculty members and researchers are active leaders in their fields and widely published, patented, and cited. Their significant contributions to technology regularly make headlines and receive the highest awards from the National Science Foundation (NSF), the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), the MacArthur Foundation, and other leading entities.
