About Us
Computing for the Environment (CS4Env) at the University of Washington supports novel collaborations across the broad fields of environmental sciences and computer science & engineering. We seek to catalyze new efforts, create a community of cross-disciplinary researchers, and position teams to be competitive for additional funding opportunities. The initiative engages environmental scientists and engineers, computer scientists and engineers, and data scientists in using advanced technologies, methodologies and computing resources to accelerate research that addresses pressing societal challenges related to climate change, pollution, biodiversity and more.
Spring Symposium
Our annual CS4Env Symposium will be on Friday, May 30th, from 1:00-6:00pm in the Zillow Commons, located on the 4th floor of the Gates Center (CSE2).
This symposium and networking event will focus on the theme of AI and the Future of Hazard-Resilient Energy Systems at the University of Washington. Join us for presentations, panel sessions, a poster session and light refreshments. There will be opportunities to talk with other participants from academia, industry and friends of the UW who are working at the frontier of AI and the environment.
