The Computer Science Department held its annual Honors day on 4/19/19.

Many students, faculty and staff in the department were recognized for Awards, Fellowships, Scholarships, or Society induction.

The Computer Science Department has been awarded over $85K Technology Fee to upgrade its instructional technology infrastructure in four projects: (1) to upgrade Grads Lab computers, (2) to build CS private cloud services, (3) to upgrade the data center server switch, (4) to upgrade audio–visual technology in classrooms. The Systems Group manager, Yu Wang, and Systems Group member, Bobby Roy, developed the proposals for the four projects. The proposals were selected by the Student Technology Fee Advisory Committee, and approved by the IT Governance Council.

Congratulations to Prof. Zhenghao Zhang for being promoted to the rank of full professor and to Prof. Sonia Haiduc and Prof. Jie Yang for being promoted to the rank of associate professor with tenure, all effective in Fall 2019.

FSU’s Computer Science faculty member Sonia Haiduc was awarded the prestigious National Science Foundation CAREER Award. The award totals $494,989 over a duration of 5 years and will allow Dr. Haiduc to study and improve the use and production of programming video tutorials. The outcomes of this project have the potential to transform the way programmers and computer science students acquire knowledge from video tutorials, allowing them to easily access quality information that is easy to extract and use in their own contexts.
