Celebrating Tech Leadership—and Education—Over the Years

The Department of Computer Science marked its 30th anniversary this summer.

From the advent of artificial intelligence to the teaching of algorithms, Dartmouth has an enduring legacy of excellence in computing. 

Since the 1940s, faculty and students have not only revolutionized computer hardware and software design but also pioneered the diverse applications of computation across the arts and sciences.

Dartmouth was the site of the first demonstration of remote access to a computer in 1940. The field of artificial Intelligence was famously established by Dartmouth mathematician John McCarthy, at a national conference held at Dartmouth in 1956. 

In the 1960s, John Kemeny and Thomas Kurtz invented the computer language BASIC. They also implemented the first (and eventually, largest) time-sharing system that made computers freely available to college students.

In the summer of 1994, the Department of Computer Science was launched, splitting away from the Department of Mathematics .

Over the years, Professor Emeritus of Computer Science Tom Cormen has seen his textbook Introduction to Algorithms sell over a million copies in multiple editions. And professors today continue to do groundbreaking work in such fields as robotics, visual computing, mobile health, creative computing, and machine learning.

It’s no wonder, then, that Dartmouth had much to celebrate when faculty and former students this summer gathered together on the occasion of the department’s 30th anniversary.

Dartmouth SYNERGY Wins $28 Million in NIH Funding

Aug 27, 2024   |   Geisel News

Dartmouth Health's Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center (DHMC) received a $27.7 million, seven-year grant from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) to fund projects that will speed the implementation of proven medical innovations as part of a national consortium of biomedical research centers.

NIH's Clinical and Translational Science Award ( CTSA ) will fund Dartmouth SYNERGY , also known as the Dartmouth Clinical and Translational Science Institute, a joint initiative that includes Dartmouth Health, and Dartmouth's Geisel School of Medicine and Thayer School of Engineering; the White River Junction VA Medical Center, and collaborating institutions in Vermont and Maine. SYNERGY joins 60 other CTSAs in the US and is one of eight with a significant focus on rural healthcare delivery.

The development of technology to improve healthcare is an important element of SYNERGY. One of three principal investigators in the CTSA is Keith D. Paulsen , MacLean Professor of Engineering and scientific director of the Center for Surgical Innovation at DHMC. Paulsen is an expert on medical imaging technologies that have improved the accuracy and safety of complex surgical procedures.

"This award is an important milestone in the development of the biomedical research enterprise in the Upper Valley," said Joanne M. Conroy, MD (D'77), CEO and president of Dartmouth Health. "The strength of SYNERGY is in its ability to bring together the resources of the health delivery system with the research and teaching assets of our partners at Dartmouth College, and regional collaborators at MaineHealth and the University of Vermont."

With 50 percent of northern New England's population living in rural areas, the challenges of rural healthcare delivery are a particular focus of SYNERGY's work, Conroy said. "Rural Americans are more likely to develop chronic illnesses and die compared to their urban counterparts. However, we are at an exciting time of breakthroughs and improvements in healthcare. This grant fortifies the infrastructure for SYNERGY to drive these innovations from the laboratories to the bedside and beyond."

Translational science is a growing field that seeks to turn discoveries made in the laboratory, clinics and community settings into interventions that improve the health of individuals and populations. SYNERGY initially received a five-year CTSA grant in 2013. SYNERGY focuses on finding ways to overcome barriers to the adoption of ideas, tools, and treatment approaches that have been proven to work.

Steven L. Bernstein, MD, chief research officer at DHMC, Senior Associate Dean for Clinical and Translational Research and Professor of Emergency Medicine at Geisel, says a major element of SYNERGY's successful grant proposal was embedding individuals with translational science expertise in operational roles in healthcare systems. Typically, researchers who have developed and proven the success of a treatment method or tool must reach out to administrators and providers and persuade them to consider new approaches. At DHMC, there are already clinicians and others with training in healthcare delivery science, implementation science, quality improvement, and related fields who are best positioned to facilitate the adoption of new evidence-based therapies, diagnostics, and practices.

"It was a strength for us—because we were already doing it," Bernstein said. "What we are learning, we can generalize for others to learn from and adopt."

SYNERGY will play a role in training more translational scientists. Part of this work will be led by Anna N.A. Tosteson, ScD, James J. Carroll 1948 Professor of Oncology in the Dartmouth Institute of Health Policy and Practice. Bernstein notes that Tosteson, the third principal investigator on the CTSA, has already received another federal grant focusing on training in learning health system science that will complement the work of SYNERGY.

Dartmouth’s Geisel School of Medicine to Launch New Online Master’s Degree Program in Implementation Science

HANOVER, NH - “How can we more quickly and effectively move new, proven scientific evidence into routine healthcare practice? What obstacles must be overcome to embrace change and modify behavior? How can we scale a successful intervention so that more people will benefit?”

These are some of the key questions future students will learn to tackle as enrollees of a unique new graduate degree program—a Master of Science (MS) in Implementation Science (IS) —which will be offered by Dartmouth’s Geisel School of Medicine in partnership with the Guarini School of Graduate and Advanced Studies beginning in September of 2025.

Implementation science is a burgeoning field that draws upon a rich and diverse set of established research traditions to address persistent gaps in moving evidence-based clinical practices into routine use in the real world.

“In other words, implementation scientists identify programs and policies that work, and collaborate with stakeholders to get people to actually use or follow them,” explains Jeremiah Brown, PhD, a professor of epidemiology at Geisel and founding director of the Dartmouth Center for Implementation Science (DCIS).

Established last summer and housed at Geisel, DCIS serves as an academic home for IS research at Dartmouth, and as an axis for faculty, staff, and students to develop expertise in implementation science.

“We’re very pleased to be launching our new MS in Implementation Science degree program,” says Duane Compton, PhD, dean of Geisel. “We experienced the need for how to put evidence-based knowledge into everyday practice, and through that we recognized that there is a dearth of education programs to train individuals with skills in implementation science. Thus, this new degree program will allow us to contribute to the rapidly increasing demand for trained experts in the field, and further position Dartmouth as a leader in implementation science nationally.”

Dartmouth’s MS in Implementation Science will be one of the first standalone master’s programs in implementation science to be launched in the U.S.—currently, there are very few comprehensive training programs available in IS, as most are offered as part of other master’s programs.

“It will also be the first fully online graduate program at Geisel—offered either over nine months or 18 months,” says Brown, who notes that the program will launch at the same time as the medical school’s MS in Health Data Science. “Having that format will give us the flexibility to provide a world-class program taught by national experts, at least a third of whom are based at other leading institutions across the country.”

“The MS in Implementation Science will be Dartmouth’s second fully online master’s degree, following the launch of Thayer’s online program earlier this year,” says Joshua Kim, PhD, assistant provost for online learning strategy at Dartmouth College. “This new fully online MS in Implementation Science demonstrates Dartmouth’s commitment to serve a global audience of diverse learners with a Dartmouth quality education.”

The program will launch with 30 graduate students with a target of 50 students annually to be achieved within two to three years and will include international enrollment. Core competencies will be designed to prepare students to assume leadership roles in implementation science across many settings—whether it be in healthcare, academic or clinical research, public health, state education, or policy work. Admissions for next year’s inaugural class are open now .

The program’s foundational curriculum , drawing from expertise across Dartmouth and international experts in implementation science, will provide coursework on: IS theories, models, and frameworks; implementation strategies and measures; study design; research approaches, including community engagement and participatory research; mixed methods for qualitative and quantitative data collection, analysis, and interpretation; adaptation and fidelity of interventions; and sustainment and sustainability in IS.

Advanced and emerging topics will include de-implementation; global implementation science; digital health implementation; IS experimental designs, implementation costing measures and cost-effectiveness analysis, scaling-out interventions, and dissemination of evidence-based interventions.

In addition to the core coursework, each student will complete a Capstone IMPACT Project (1.0 unit) that spans the entire program—stay tuned for more details.

Please note that letters of recommendation should be on official letterhead. If the company/institution does not have or allow letterhead the recommender should note that. Letters of recommendation from personal email accounts will be subject to additional review. 

Letters of recommendation should ideally come from your college professors using their official school email address. Applicants with work or military experience or currently in another graduate program should submit a recommendation from their immediate supervisor, a current or former employer, or someone who knows them well through some other professional or community activity. 

The Guarini School partners with a company specializing in educational verifications to help with the verification of recommendations upon admittance. After acceptance, they will reach out to recommenders for verification.      Academic Transcripts  

All applicants are required to submit academic transcripts from each undergraduate or graduate institution from which you obtained your degrees (eg. your bachelor's degrees or other advanced degrees).

Non-degree coursework: If you attended institutions other than those from which your degree(s) were granted, you are required to scan and upload your academic transcripts from these institutions (transfer coursework, domestic or study-abroad programs, postgraduate non-degree coursework, etc).

International Transcripts: You will upload a copy of your academic transcript (not diploma) issued by the institution(s) from which you obtained your undergraduate degree(s) and any advanced/graduate degree(s) directly to the online application. While a WES evaluation is not mandatory for admission, it can help expedite the application review process.  

Upload BOTH sides of your transcript (provided the second side is not blank). 

The file must be less than 1 MB, in a standard format, WITHOUT password protection or macros. Any of these problems will cause the upload process to fail. 

A diploma is not a transcript. 

Please make sure the upload is clear and easy to read.

If you upload a scanned copy of your transcript, you do not need to send a hard copy. The scanned copy fulfills the requirement for the application process. Upon admission, you will be required to supply an official hard copy of your transcript. 

Enrolling Students: If admitted, you will be required to submit one final official, original hardcopy transcript) directly from each college and/or university you have attended. 

International applicants must make arrangements to have their academic records translated and sent along with the originals. Where American-style transcripts are not used, the applicant must include all available records including courses, grades, degrees, and rank-in-class. The appropriate university officials must certify these records. Evaluations from WES (World Education Services) can be used instead of official transcripts, but they must be sent directly by the evaluation service provider, and they must include a copy of the official transcripts that were evaluated. 

The Guarini School partners with a company specializing in educational verifications to help with the verification and collection of official transcripts and degrees. After acceptance, they will reach out to collect the required documents.  

For all graduate programs, Guarini accepts the following English proficiency tests: TOEFL , IELTS , and Duolingo . During the application process, self-reported scores are acceptable. However, once admitted, students will be required to electronically submit official test results directly from the testing organization. 

The ETS code for the Guarini School is 3351. 

Admissions Decisions 

The Guarini School does not handle the application review process. Individual program admission committees review applications and render admission decisions. 

Applications are not reviewed until AFTER the program application deadline. Applying before the deadline does not necessarily mean you will receive an early decision. 

Admission committees release decisions on various timelines. You will receive an email when a decision has been made.

Introducing jack andolina, a new addition to dartmouth's program in quantitative social science.

The Program in Quantitative Social Science ( QSS ) at  Dartmouth College  is excited to welcome Jack Andolina, an accomplished researcher with a passion for computational social science, to our academic community.

Academic Background and Research Expertise

Jack completed his B.S. in Political Science and Data Analytics at  UC San Diego  in June 2024, where he excelled both academically and in research. His senior thesis, titled "Quantifying Partisan Media Bias: Gatekeeping and Framing of Congressional Misconduct," was awarded high honors under the mentorship of  Dr. Umberto Mignozzetti . This work highlights Jack's ability to delve deeply into complex issues at the intersection of media and politics, using data-driven approaches to uncover insights into how media bias influences public perception.

Before joining Dartmouth, Jack served as the Computational Social Science Research Lead at the  Institute of Cyber Archaeology and Sustainability  within the  Qualcomm Institute . There, he honed his skills in applied artificial intelligence and led projects that bridged technology and social science. Jack's work has been recognized at conferences, including the  American Society of Overseas Research  and the  Pi Sigma Alpha Political Science  conferences, where he presented his research on AI applications and partisan media bias.

Professional Experience

In addition to his academic achievements, Jack brings a wealth of professional experience to Dartmouth.  As the Computer Social Science & Team Leader at the Center for Cyber-Archeology and Sustainability, Qualcomm Institute, he led a team of interdisciplinary undergraduates in creating a digital twin of Chula Vista's Bayfront District, Hollywood's Vinyl District, and UC San Diego. At U.S. News & World Report, Jack served as a Product Analyst Intern, where he developed a web scraper to collect extensive government data and efficiently cleaned and processed large datasets using Python. Additionally, as the Executive Legislative Intern at the County of San Diego, Jack engineered essential data infrastructure, utilizing innovative VBA scripts and conducting comprehensive data analysis, which facilitated seamless engagement with 620,000 constituents.These experiences have equipped him with a broad perspective on how data can be leveraged to inform policy and media practices.

Role at Dartmouth

At Dartmouth, Jack will be taking on the role of a post-baccalaureate Research Associate in Quantitative Social Science. Working closely with Professor  Brendan Nyhan , member of the QSS Steering Committee and James O. Freedman Presidential Professor of Government, and Professor  John Carey , a QSS affiliate and John Wentworth Professor in the Social Sciences and Government, Jack's primary focus will be Bright Line Watch , which surveys the state of democracy in the United States. Jack will be involved in many aspects of this project, from survey design to the analysis of results, contributing to a deeper understanding of the challenges facing democracy today. In addition to his work on Bright Line Watch, Jack will be engaged in several other research initiatives. He will contribute to a social media misinformation project focused on understanding the dynamics of misinformation spread on social platforms, though details of this work will be restricted by a non-disclosure agreement (NDA).

Personal Interests

Outside of his professional and academic pursuits, Jack enjoys exploring the arts and the outdoors.. Jack enjoys writing music, hiking, painting, and participating in a variety of outdoor activities.

QSS is thrilled to have Jack Andolina join Dartmouth, and we look forward to the innovative research and fresh perspectives he will bring to QSS.
