Who's working on "Strong AI" and where? Time for me to move on for my PhD. I have become increasingly interested (have a theory of my own as I am sure many do) in Strong AI. There seem to be a decent number of postings (perhaps small in comparison with other areas of CS), those however are...

Hi, I'm interested in celestial mechanics and would like to do an internship about it in Stanford, kind of computational one. I visited many projects webpages on Stanford's website but I didn't find anything about researchs including celestial mechanic ... What keywords should I use on Google...

Hello all, Stanford is offering FREE online Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence courses running from October 10 to December 18. Would anyone like to register and start an online PF study group with me? Here are the links: http://www.ml-class.org http://www.ai-class.com

I'm a city college student who will someday be trying for a masters in ME or EE at Stanford, MIT, or Berkeley. I already have a bachelors which means I can't go for a second one at these schools (at least Stanford and recently UCB I'm sure of). My bachelor's was in music, and my gpa was 3.0...

okeyy, so i am a student in high school and i would like to apply for caltech but i want to know what my chances are: so i want to study engineering, i go to an international school, i love maths! but I'm not soo good in languages like french but i don't need that for engineering do i? And so...

I'm at a crossroads in my life now and I have the lucky dilemma of having to choose between Harvard and Stanford (which one should I take? :P) so...which one do I take? I'm planning to major in physics/astrophysics but I see both have are pretty strong with those fields. FA is amazing at both so...

Can anyone tell me about the quality of life as a grad student at Harvard and Stanford? I've been accepted to the PhD physics programs at both schools and have no idea which one to choose. Since both schools are excellent academically and I don't yet have a specific area I want to specialize...

I have just finished grade 10 pre IB in Canada. And I am starting IB next year. I will take HL math, chem and english, and SL physics, geography, and french(which i am almost fluent in.) GPA: 4.0 unweighted I have also completed grade 11 and 12 biology, receiving top marks in the school (97...

So I'm going to visit SLAC for 2 weeks at the start of August and I was wondering if anyone happened to know some decent places for the 2 week stay? I'm probably mainly looking at motels/hotels but I don't know the area as well as some of you might. I'm working off $1k of grant money so that's a...

Dear Physics Forums, I am a math major who just finished my sophomore year at a USNews top 10 school. As the title says it, I have a (sad) 3.47 gpa with my math gpa just about the same. Over the last few weeks, I have been considering my career path and yes, going to graduate school for math...

I'm going for a career preferably in Particle Physics, but I still have a couple years to worry about college, so I'm just wondering, Stanford or MIT? Or somewhere else? And why Standford, MIT, or other?

I am considering getting a MS in Astronautics and Aeronautics at Stanford. It's free (my employer pays the tuition) but will take about 5 years for me to get. Any thoughts if this is worth it? It'll be my second masters degree and I'm currently employed as an engineer.

I'm just wondering, but if you are a good student at HYPMS or maybe even UPenn, is there a good chance of earning near 100K fresh out of college? Or is this just a big misconception that most ambitious high school students have?

I told one of my friends about the Stanford OCW and he found the "Lectures on Fourier Transforms for Electrical Engineers". http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gZNm7L96pfY&feature=PlayList&p=B24BC7956EE040CD&index=0 Since it is summer time, he said he might spend time looking through that...

http://epgy.stanford.edu/courses/math/index.html Has anyone tried learning from EPGY before? If yes, what do you think about it? Is it worth wasting money on this?

I'm interested to hear from Grad Students at these schools about anything they wish they had known when they were applying. How competitive/compassionate are the students? How is the weather? Are people happy? Is the town in complete economic distress? Do you like the whole department, or...

So, what if a student is above 18 years old [I'm not, but may consider EPGY after 18] and wants to do Stanford EPGY? It says that it's only for HS students, but as a college student and high school dropout with a learning disability who is totally dissatisfied with how the courses are taught in...

I still don't get the reason for turning down their applications, maybe if they did something to influence their admissions decision I would understand.

Which school is better for graduate study, Stanford or Caltech?

This is very very exciting. :smile: (If this is the wrong forum to post this in please do the honors and move it to where it belongs). http://news-service.stanford.edu/news/2005/january12/google-0112.html

Can someone tell it please? I've never heard it.
