CyLab’s annual partners conference
Over the course of an exclusive multiple day event each year, our partners convene at Carnegie Mellon University for the annual CyLab Partners Conference to meet with and learn from CyLab faculty, staff, and students about the latest research breakthroughs and on-going projects. During non-recorded panel discussions, partner representatives and CyLab researchers discuss the latest research challenges and trends in industry and academia and explore new opportunities for collaboration.
CyLab seminars
CyLab Partners receive exclusive access to view, learn and discuss webinars delivered by CyLab and visiting faculty, government and industry security and privacy experts. Partners are also welcome to attend any session live and we would be happy to introduce you to the speaker. Registered partner portal members receive notifications of seminars. Upcoming seminars are listed on our events page.
CyLab visiting researchers
CyLab partnership enables a limited number of highly qualified researchers to work in co-located space in the Collaborative Innovation Center on campus. CyLab visiting researchers may connect with an established research group or conduct independent studies, engaging in formal or informal discussions with faculty, graduate students and postgraduate researchers. Visiting researchers attend workshops, conferences, seminars, and events across CMU, and join other activities as part of the CyLab community.
