Who Are We?

The Undergraduate Division of the Neuromorphic Computing Group (NCG) is a research lab at the forefront of neuromorphic computing. Our work focuses on the exciting intersection of artificial intelligence, neuroscience, and electrical engineering. We are a diverse and interdisciplinary group, actively exploring how to build and understand brain-inspired systems. We welcome students from all backgrounds and are always looking to expand our team with new projects and people.

Join Us

We are actively recruiting undergraduate students to join our research efforts through CMPM 118. This course is structured to support students at different experience levels and has two main sections:

  • Educational Track: All incoming students begin in this track. You’ll spend one quarter building a strong foundation in key concepts before being considered for a research project.
  • Research Track: This track is for students who have completed the educational requirements and have been assigned to an open research project.
