The past year has been an exciting time in many areas for the Computer Engineering Program. In the area of research, many of our faculty are involved in the Greenscale Center for Energy-Efficient Computing which is a part of the College of Engineering's Institute for Energy Efficiency.
We are also welcoming a new faculty member, Dmitri Strukov from Hewlett-Packard Laboratories, who's research on hybrid CMOS/nanodevice circuits and memristors (resistance switching nanodevices) has been highlighted worldwide in major media.
This is our new website that has been created with the student in mind. We wanted prospective students to have access to questions such as "Why Computer Engineering?" and "Why UCSB?" and we wanted our current students to have better access to advising information, the program's curriculum, senior sequence courses and to see what it's like to do a senior project.
Along with other additions, we're sure you will find what you need. If you don't, feel free to call us at 805/893-5615 or email us at info@ce.ucsb.edu.
We look forward to the 2009-2010 academic year - Fred Chong, Director CE Program
