Linguists face a resource gap for studying visual prosody and its grammatical and emotional functions in sign languages, and for creating AI systems capable of processing visual prosody. Faculty members affiliated with RIT’s Ph.D. program in Cognitive Science aim to fill that gap through Deaf scientist-centered research.

To accommodate its growing number of graduates, the Golisano College of Computing and Information Sciences will hold two separate commencement ceremonies on May 10, 2025.

Diana Velychko, a Fulbright master’s student in artificial intelligence, is paving the way for more intuitive artificial intelligence (AI) systems. Her work focuses on the intersection of human perception and AI, aiming to bridge the gap between how people see the world and how machines interpret it.

Nestled in the basement of the Student Alumni Union, the WITR radio station space is a treasure trove of music, personalities, and nostalgia. The station and the music have greatly evolved since its first broadcast in 1961, but one thing has remained constant: the tight-knit network of students and alumni.

A new National Science Foundation grant will allow 18 RIT students to travel to Sweden and conduct artificial intelligence (AI) research that enhances the industrial workplace. The students will take part in a program of AI research, professional development, and mentorship, which includes eight weeks at University West, near Gothenburg, Sweden.

What a hoot! RIT students and faculty harnessed the power of technology, the arts, and design to create a giant owl structure out of 1,500 pounds of canned food, all of which will be donated.
