Computer Science

[1]

Computer Science at UNB began in the form of individual courses offered under the auspices of the Faculty of Electrical Engineering. Credit and non-credit computing courses were developed in parallel with the expansion of computing facilities during the 1960s. A computing centre was established in 1964 and the Department of Computer Science followed in 1968/69.

The newly created Department provided undergraduate courses but also offered a Masters Degree program specifically in Computer Science. The first Master of Science in Computer Science graduated in 1970. The Bachelor of Science in Computer Science degree program was established soon after, in 1972. In recognition of its growth, the Department became the School of Computer Science in 1974. The School’s Co-operative Education program became operational in May 1982 and soon after received accreditation from the Canadian Association for Co-operative Education (CAFCE). A PhD program was added to the offerings of the School of Computer Science in 1986/87.

In 1990, the School was made into the first Computer Science faculty in Canada. In 2000, the Bachelor of Science in Software Engineering was established as a joint undergraduate program with the Faculty of Engineering. The Bachelor of Information Systems was established in 2007.
