SEAS computer science faculty to teach short courses for execs

Working professionals and executives can now enroll in one- and two-day intensive programs exploring cutting-edge topics in information technology thanks to a collaboration between Harvard’s Division of Continuing Education and computer science faculty from the School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS).

The newly created professional development initiative will address a growing need among organizations to keep their managers up-to-speed in rapidly changing technology environments. Participants will benefit from interacting with some of the most notable teachers and researchers in their fields, all in state-of-the-art classrooms on the Harvard campus.

The information technology programs will cover a range of topics, including data visualization and social networks, enabling participants to apply current research to solve problems in their own organizations.
