Students accepted to the Ph.D. program will have the opportunity to
work with Institute faculty, staff, and student members from over 15
campus units in wide ranging and innovative research programs in HCI.
The Institute offers excellent facilities, including primary office and
laboratory spaces housed in the newly completed Newell Simon Hall, as

of backgrounds, and we anticipate that all students accepted to the HCI
Ph.D. program will receive tuition and living allowance funding for as
long as they are enrolled and in good standing.
