Welcome to the Open Week 2014 of the Department of Computational Sciences (CCC) of INAOE!

This open week is intended for attracting national and international prospective students willing to pursue their MSc or PhD degrees with us. During the week, a number of activities have been programmed including lab tours, demos, interviews with the researchers, seminars, etc so that prospective student can find out more about the department life. We hope to show those prospective students with a hint of the life at INAOE and show them some of the research projects going on in the department.
