Eight faculty and affiliated faculty along with their student researchers from the Jacobs School of Engineering’s Department of Computer Science and Engineering (CSE) presented papers at the 2025 Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems (CHI).
Researchers from the department are studying a broad swath of topics – ranging from autonomous vehicles and gaming to education, disability inclusiveness, perceptions of fairness, and more – with a common goal: to create computing systems that are intuitive, efficient, and safe for users.
