"The University of Toledo’s computer science engineering master’s program has helped me develop technically and professionally. The technical courses and projects helped me grow my skills, and NSF-funded programs like ICORPS helped me get in touch with the industry, bridging the gap between academic institution and industries."
Nitin Kumar Pundir, MS ’07
"The Ph.D. program in the Electrical Engineering and Computer Science department of The University of Toledo helped me develop both academically and professionally under the mentorship of experienced faculty. The program provides ample time to graduate students to focus on their research. As a research student in systems and security, I always received the resources — both hardware and software — that I needed. I had opportunities to grow my network and was sponsored by the department to attend conferences."
