National Leader in Research

As a research leader in the field of software, the SEI directed two national efforts to set R&D agendas in software and artificial intelligence (AI) engineering. These efforts help shape future research to grow awareness, build community interest, and focus resources on making software and AI safer, more secure, and more useful for our national well-being.
