Astrophysical observations have provided strong evidence for the existence of dark matter in the universe. However, its underlying nature remains unknown and cannot be accommodated within the standard model. A search for dark matter at the larger hadron collider allows us to probe a wide range of dark matter-normal matter interactions. In this talk, I will give a brief overview of dark matter, an introduction to the large hadron collider and the CMS detector. I will also present the results of the searches for dark matter, using the proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV, collected by the CMS detector.
