The Student Experience
Abeynaya Gnanasekaran, PhD candidate, Institute for Computational & Mathematical Engineering
"I find my PhD work in linear algebra exciting because many problems in many different fields boil down, directly or indirectly, to solving linear systems."
Alexander Ioannidis, MS '18, Management Science & Engineering, PhD ’18, Institute for Computational & Mathematical Engineering
"I’ve always been interested in human health as an engineering problem."

Madeleine Udell, PhD Computational & Mathematical Engineering ’15
"I’ve always been interested in how you can use mathematics to model and solve real-world problems."
Xpo Research Symposium 2022
Every May ICME holds a Research Symposium providing an up-close and inside look at current research and future plans for ICME faculty and students. Watch video's from the latest symposium held Tuesday, May 24, 2022.
The HIVE: Stanford’s Immersive Visualization Environment
The HANA Immersive Visualization Environment (HIVE) features a 10-foot-tall by 24-feet-wide display with 13440x5400 resolution and 72 million total active pixels. Researchers may use multiple displays simultaneously to investigate various aspects of data collection, simulation, and visualization and to zoom in to see detail at previously unheard-of-levels.
A Center of Collaboration
ICME PhD & MS students’ research is diverse and interdisciplinary ranging from bioinformatics, geosciences, computational finance, and more.
