On the one hand, each research unit of faculty has a work space from which innovations for the discipline are generated. On the other hand, activities like workshops and exhibitions are being conducted in designated classrooms and central hall.
The so-called “acceleration room” helps to showcase developments in the area of human-computer interaction in an experiential way. Therefore, activities such as visits to schools and general public are planned where, through games and other dynamics, new forms of interaction with computers can be learned and experienced.
Tauber and Naiouf have agreed to operate spaces in the imposing building to teach computer-related subjects in the institute's new data science degree, which will be taught for the first time this year.
The meeting between the two officials also included a tour of the new auditorium at the faculty headquarters, located at 50th and 120th Street. It should be noted that the room opened in mid-2023 and marked the completion of the last phase. Construction works of your entire building.
