establish the computer science major. It was renamed the Department of Computer Engineering and
Science in 1979 and the Department of Computer Science and Technology in 1984. The department
started the master program in 1978 and the PhD program in 1981.
Our department continues its historical mission to build a first-class computer science
research institution and cultivate top-notch talents. We have conducted an impressive number
