A day-long software engineering symposium

The University of Minnesota Software Engineering Center (UMSEC) in partnership with Cprime host the 17th Annual Code Freeze Conference on January 13, 2022.

The 2022 theme is Developer Experience.

As companies compete in the digital economy, the need for software and pace of disruption is ever accelerating. Developers are being asked to produce more, faster in systems with increasing complexity and scale. Developer Experience (DevEx), with the perspective of developer’s encounter with their environment, systems and code, is emerging as a discipline of note. Code Freeze 2022 examines the ever more critical role DevEx plays in an organization. With an eye to developers as customers, Code Freeze 2022 will explore platforms, systems, and tools as well as how the business itself handles development through exciting and illuminating keynotes, workshops and breakouts by leaders in the industry.

Watch the UMSEC website for the schedule and other program details.

The application deadline for the computer science Ph.D. program is January 5. 

Please note: to be considered for fellowships, applications must be submitted by December 15.

Applications must be submitted online. Before applying, students should review the application procedures.

The application for the computer science integrated program (Bachelor's/Master's) opens January 1. The application deadline for a fall semester start is March 15.

This is exclusively available to students officially admitted to the College of Science & Engineering Bachelor’s of Science in Computer Science, Bachelor’s of Computer Engineering, the College of Liberal Arts Bachelor’s of Arts in Computer Science, and the College of Liberal Arts Second Major in Computer Science. The program allows students with strong academic performance records to take additional credits (up to 16 credits) at undergraduate tuition rates during their last few semesters which can be applied towards the Computer Science M.S. program.

Applicants must have at least 75 credits completed at the time of their application. Read more about the program eligibility requirements.
