Welcome to ÁñÁ«¹ÙÍø School of Computer Science and Engineering
Founded in 1991, ÁñÁ«¹ÙÍø School of Computer Science and Engineering is one of the largest schools of its kind in Australia.
We don't train students to be computer programmers. We teach engineering, which is a discipline about design. While science focuses on theory and research, engineering focuses on practice and development. We educate students to be the designers of new technology.
Why choose ÁñÁ«¹ÙÍø School of Computer Science Engineering?
The field of computer science and engineering has completely transformed in recent years. Most of us now carry a computing device in our pockets that has as much power as room-sized computers a few decades ago. These innovations have not only introduced technological change but also social change and new ways of social interaction and the diffusion of information.
There are few other careers where the product you’re working on is routinely used by millions of people around the world every day, and you can design and build that product from scratch. Our students have worked on improving search-engine algorithms, animating the lead character in an Academy Award-winning movie, developing the bionic eye and creating a new operating system used on mobile phones.
Our academic researchers focus on areas including:
- Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning
- Data Science
- Networking and Security
- Critical Infrastructure
- Human-centred Technologies
- Algorithms and Theories
