Established in 1998, NUS School of Computing provides a
stimulating environment that amalgamates the best of educational
traditions, drawing its faculty staff of 200 from leading
universities ranging from the Ivy League to Oxbridge.
The School, which is a fully fledged faculty within the National
University of Singapore, has about 2,000 students, a quarter of them
pursuing graduate studies. Since its early days as the only
university department in Singapore that produced computing talent
for the workforce, NUS School of Computing has produced a trail of
distinguished alumni, including the chief executives and technology
architects of multinationals and government agencies.
The School encourages excellence in diversity among its students.
Some are winners of prestigious awards such as the National Infocomm
Scholarship. Others are creative thinkers capable of besting their
peers in international competitions in areas such as Games
Artificial Intelligence.
At the School, research initiatives are supported by a number of
research laboratories and centres. Fitted with equipment that is
funded mainly by research grants, the laboratories and centres
provide a common space for people with similar interest to exchange
ideas and work together.The School is managed by an Executive
Committee, with input from an Industry Advisory Committee.
In terms of affiliation, the School enjoys a close working
relationship with its alumni, represented by the Computer and
Information Science Alumni Association (CISAA). The student body is
represented by the NUS Students' Computing Club, whose precursor was
the Computer Science Society.
Historically, NUS School of Computing traces its roots to the
Department of Information Systems and Computer Science (DISCS)
within the Faculty of Science, and further to the joint campus days.
The tables below pay tribute to the individuals who have led the
School and its affiliated agencies through the years. |
