Welcome to CSE @ UCR
UCR Department of Computer Science & Engineering
Welcome to the Computer Science and Engineering (CSE) at the University of California, Riverside! The Department offers the B.S. degree in Computer Science (ABET accredited), Computer Engineering (ABET accredited), Business Informatics; the M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in Computer Science. We are also proud to introduce our new Five-Year Joint B.S.+M.S. degree in Computer Science. At the graduate level, we have strong research programs in architecture, compiler, embedded systems, algorithms, computational biology, databases, data mining, computer networks, distributed processing, artificial intelligence, software engineering, and graphics areas. Our department currently has 4 lecturers and 24 tenure-track faculty that include 3 ACM Fellows, 3 IEEE Fellows, 4 AAAS Fellows, 1 NSF Presidential Young Investigator, 1 AFOSR Young Investigator, and 7 NSF CAREER award holders. Our external research funding is around $3.5M per year. Although relatively young, we have quickly become a well established and well known research department, with over 120 Ph.D. and 25 M.S. students enrolled in the 2008-09 academic year. We graduate 20-22 Ph.D. students every year and place them in reputed universities and industries. I invite you to further explore our department and the exciting opportunities that we provide on our web site and again, welcome you to Computer Science and Engineering at UCR! Laxmi N. Bhuyan
