The GADA Lab in the Department of Computer Science at the
University of Manitoba is a vibrant research group consisting of
four faculty members, approximately ten MSc and PhD students, and
several BSc students focusing on research in algorithms. Weekly
group research discussions are held during the teaching terms, as
well as several weekly project meetings. Alumni from the GADA Lab
now hold faculty positions at various universities, as well as
positions in industry (e.g., at Google).<br>
<br>
The Department of Computer Science at the University of Manitoba
is a dynamic research department, currently consisting of 30
research and teaching faculty, with clusters of expertise in
algorithms, machine learning and computer vision, human-computer
interaction, bioinformatics, and distributed computing.<br>
<br>
The University of Manitoba has approximately 28,000 students and
is the largest research institute in Manitoba. Established in
1877, it was the first university in western Canada. In 2018 the
University of Manitoba ranked 12th in a ranking of top research
universities in Canada (of approximately 95 universities in
Canada).<br>
<br>
With a population of over 778,000, the city of Winnipeg is the
cultural centre of the Canadian prairie region, with world-class
ballet, orchestra, museums, music festivals, a wide variety
cuisine in restaurants, and multiple professional sports teams.<br>
