We enjoy hosting scientists from around the world to learn from their experiences and about their investigations.
One of our traditions is to invite, every fall semester, at least one industrial researcher to lecture at the class on Foundations of Constraint Processing (CSCE421/821). The goal of the lecture is to learn the utility in the real world of the theoretical properties and the algorithms taught in class. This has proved to be a most effective way to put the material discussed in class in perspective and gain confidence in the usefulness of the concepts discussed.
