PhD and MS programs are offered in Computer Science and a Biomedical Informatics concentration.

The Emory Computer Science and Informatics (CSI) PhD program builds on strengths and recent growth in data-oriented areas of computer science and biomedical informatics. The CSI program is jointly administered by the Departments of Computer Science, Biostatistics and Bioinformatics, and Biomedical Informatics.

Research and research training in the CSI PhD program includes large-scale data systems and analytics, information retrieval and web search, natural language processing, privacy and security, machine learning, human computer interaction, bioinformatics, biomedical informatics, high performance and scientific computing. Application areas of interest to program faculty include healthcare and health sciences, social sciences, and humanities.

The Emory Computer Science (CS) MS program educates students from various disciplines in advanced computing concepts, practical problem solving, and applications of computational methods. Focus areas include data, theory, systems, machine learning, artificial intelligence, natural language processing, and human computer interaction. A CS track and a biomedical informatics track are offered.

The M.S. is an effective gateway into CS for students with backgrounds in other disciplines (basic programming and data structures, as well as quantitative aptitude are the only requirements.)
