It’s here: @WisAlumni's Day of the Badger continues until 5 PM on Wednesday, 4/15. Help us reach 100 donations to unlock $25,000 more in student funding! Pay it forward during #DayoftheBadger: dayofthebadger.org/campaign/compu…

Donors make all the difference. This year, an anonymous donor enabled four @wacm_uwm officers to attend Harvard's WECode conference and access career-changing opportunities. "None of it would be possible without financial support from donors": cs.wisc.edu/2026/04/14/wac…

Join us for an open house on Saturday, April 11 as part of @uwmadison's 2026 Science Expeditions! Come find @uwcdis in Morgridge Hall's (1205 University Ave) Orchard Street Lobby from 10 AM-1 PM. Explore public art, student spaces, robot demos, student-led tours, and more.

Computer Sciences professor Aws Albarghouthi has a “provocative vision” for how teaching quantum computing to overcome common learning barriers: beginning with computer programming. Read more: ow.ly/Kr0k50YEy3X #Quantum #MidwestQuantum @awsTO @TannuSwamit @WisconsinCS

Congratulations to Professor Miron Livny, director of @CHTC_UW and CTO of @Morgridge_Inst, on being named one of this year’s Hilldale Award recipients. Meet all four awardees from across @uwmadison: news.wisc.edu/meet-the-winne…

Congratulations to Xinning He PhDx'30, who was recently named a 2026 Kohler Fellow by @WIDiscovery. He's work in human-computer interaction and robotics explores how design can foster socially fluent human-robot coexistence: wid.wisc.edu/new-kohler-fel…

First look at the initial draft of the legs that will carry the nation's first student-led, full SOTA humanoid robot! Lots of improvements under way. Architecture: FAR Hips RSU Linkage for ankles

“If we can build the [nation’s] first or second humanoid robot, we'll suddenly have one of the most prepared student bodies in the world to go fill this massive billion dollar market.” — @Wiscohumanoids in the @dailycardinal The future of robotics: dailycardinal.com/article/2026/0…

Thank you so much @WisconsinCS for this beautiful article about me and my robots. I’m deeply grateful for the support from our department, my advisor Bilge, and my lab mates in making my robot design work possible. 🤖👥🫶

Most robots are designed to perform practical, if unglamorous, jobs — but not all. In the People and Robots Lab, PhD candidate Amy Koike (@AmyInMadison21) designs expressive robots that spark joy and human connection. Expressive machina: cs.wisc.edu/2026/03/04/exp…

It is a great pleasure to attend #HRI2016 again! This year, seven papers from the People and Robots Lab will be presented! We are already excited about presenting. Make sure to come to our talks!🥰 Go Badgers!

ICYMI: Professor @sumanbanerjee's new entrepreneurship course is an Epic success. @HeyEpic Founder/CEO (and alumna) Judy Faulkner stopped by to share the business decisions that made her @Forbes’ “most powerful woman in healthcare.” More sage advice: cs.wisc.edu/2026/02/25/a-c…

“I always knew I wanted to build my own startup,” says Siddarth Singh. A degree in computer science offered that foundation. Now, as president of @transcenduw, he's building on it — one startup at a time. Inside Singh’s entrepreneurial path: cs.wisc.edu/2026/02/12/sid…

Congratulations to Professor Mohit Gupta, one of 24 researchers to receive a Vilas Associates award from @uwmadison's Office of the Vice Chancellor of Research. Meet the rest of the awardees: research.wisc.edu/uncategorized/…

I am teaching a graduate class on trustworthy AI (CS 763) at @WisconsinCS We having amazing guest lectures planned. I have created youtube videos for the guest lectures. In our first guest lecture Saeed (smahloujifar.github.io) talks about memorization in LLMs. youtu.be/ARBE7Q5jIJ4

“It was objectively a terrible product ... but to us, it was the coolest thing in the world.” Priority, a productivity startup from @uwmadison undergrads, is now a glossy platform combining calendars, tasks, and goals. @alaina_wal4347 for @dailycardinal: dailycardinal.com/article/2026/0…

As part of a new @WisconsinCS entrepreneurship course, @HeyEpic founder and Badger alumna Judy Faulkner returned to campus to talk about her journey from writing code to building a company that underpins health care delivery around the world. Read more: cs.wisc.edu/2026/02/25/a-c…

Introducing Paper Trail, a new AI-powered podcast highlighting cutting-edge research. Using @Google's @NotebookLM, award-winning research papers are now available in a digestible format. Listen & learn: cs.wisc.edu/2026/02/03/str…

Congratulations to Professor Michael Gleicher, who was recently named a Fellow of @TheOfficialACM for his contributions to graphics, multimedia, visualization, and robotics. Learn more: cs.wisc.edu/2026/01/27/pro…
