Benefits of Membership

Members of the Computer Sciences Department Industrial Affiliates Program receive the following benefits. Members of any of the area Affiliates programs are automatically members of the Department Affiliates and receive these benefits (plus whatever other benefits are provided by the individual area programs).

Recruiting:

As a member of our Affiliates Program, you have increased access to our students for full-time, internship, and summer job recruiting.

  • We highlight and announce by email the ads that our affiliates submit to our undergraduate jobs page and graduate jobs page.
  • We also schedule on-site interview dates for our affiliates. This includes providing conference room space in our building, announcing the dates electronically and in the appropriate classes, collecting resumes, providing space for informational meetings or receptions, assisting you with local arrangements for your recruiters, and scheduling technical talks.

Access to Faculty:

Our faculty works to make itself available to our Affiliates for discussions on our research, students, curriculum, and other related topics. We also visit affiliate sites to make presentations on our research.

Access to Research Results:

The department has two main means of disseminating our research results to our Affiliates:

  • Early Notice of Publications: You will receive timely notification of the availability of new research publications and technical reports. These reports are immediately available on our Department's Web server. You may optionally receive a quarterly delivery of hardcopies of these reports.
  • Affiliates Seminars: Periodically, our Department as a whole or individual research areas hold one to two day seminars to review current research. Invitations to these seminars are given only to organizations that are members of our Affiliates Program. Members may send multiple attendees to each seminar.

Yearly Department Research-Summary Publication:

We automatically distribute copies of our department's Annual Report to our Affiliates. This publication summarizes the major research activities in our department, include summaries for each faculty member and list of active Ph.D. students and their research topics.

Long-term Visitors:

Members are eligible to site a visitor in our Department for up to one year. Visitors will be provided office space, computing resources, and network access. During their stay, visitors are welcome to attend classes and participate in our various research groups. (There is additional cost for visitors, above the basic Affiliates membership rate. See the cost section for details.)

Visibility:

Your organization name and (at your request) company logo are displayed prominently on our Affiliates Web page. You may also include a link to your organization's Web page.
