The CSDSE division offers 3 PhD programs (Computer Science, Data Science and Electrical Engineering) in partnership with the NYU Graduate School of Arts and NYU Tandon School of Engineering. Students will be awarded the NYU degree upon graduation and have access to the vast intellectual resources of the NYU community. They will be engaged in cutting-edge research environments at NYU Shanghai, including NYU Shanghai Center for Data Science, activities such as a regular program of seminars and visiting academics, a thriving community of PhD students, post-doctoral fellows, and research associates, and links with other universities within and outside China. Financial aid is covered through the NYU Shanghai Doctoral Fellowship, including tuition, fees, and an annual stipend.
