The Department of Computer Science and Engineering at the University of North Texas provides very high quality educational programs by maintaining a balance between theoretical and experimental aspects of computer science, as well as a balance between software and hardware issues, and by providing curricula that serve the citizens and industrial organizations of Texas in general, and those in North Texas in particular. The department offers ABET-accredited bachelor of science degrees in computer engineering and computer science and an ABET-accredited bachelor of arts degree in information technology. The department also offers master of science degrees in computer engineering and computer science and a doctoral degree in computer science and engineering. Current research interests of the faculty may be grouped broadly into algorithms and computational science, computer security, computer systems and networks, databases and data mining, intelligent systems, and software engineering. Details about specific faculty research may be found on the faculty members’ web pages. The departmental research is supported by federal and state agencies as well as industrial concerns.
