Description Contents Requirements Funding

KAIST School of Computing offers academic programs for B.S., M.S, and Ph.D. degrees. The study of computing today is not only limited to a problem-solving but also involves in making people’s life better. The core study of the foundations in computing is algorithms, programming languages, and operating systems. In addition, as the computing has integrated into our lives, the applied studies, like visual, social, and interactive computing have become important subfield of the computing.
