About CG at Penn

The HMS Center's mission today may be broadly defined as the study of computer graphics and animation applied to the creation, animation, and utilization of human characters, crowd modeling and control, and computational connections between language and action. The Center’s research is well-represented and cited in the mainstream computer graphics literature. HMS exists to promote first quality research
of international stature. The HMS Center provides a collegial and open atmosphere in which faculty, staff, and students cooperate and coordinate project work. Nearly a dozen Ph.D. students engage in collaborative research efforts with Masters and Undergraduate student participation.
