The School of Electronic Engineering and Computer Science
The School of Electronic Engineering and Computer Science (EECS) was created by the merger of the Department of Computer Science and the Department of Electronic Engineering.Please see the EECS site for more information about the new School.
The Department of Computer Science at Queen Mary University of London has a thriving research community with a long history of innovation and an international reputation for excellence in cutting edge research. Since its establishment in 1968 as one of the first Computer Science departments in the UK, the department has played a significant role in many aspects of the discipline...
...in particular the foundations of programming languages, human-computer interaction and parallel computing - and we continue to place ourselves at the forefront of research and technology, extending to other significant areas of activity, including intelligent Web technologies, computer vision and risk assessment. Our world-leading computer scientists work on core developments, like building fast reliable networks and smart secure software, as well as novel technologies such as video surveillance for security, tools to enhance augmented human interaction, improved methods for information retrieval and software to support decision-making.
As a leading research department, we have excellent links with industry, both within the UK and internationally, working together on commercial and research projects funded by UK Research Councils, the EU, and industry from around the world. We also encourage and support the commercial exploitation of our research via companies, such as Agena Ltd in the field of risk analysis and decision support and Apriorie Ltd in the area of information retrieval.
We are passionate about computing and its impact on the world, and committed to developing a supportive, friendly and challenging environment for teaching, learning and research.
We offer a wide range of undergraduate, Masters and research degrees under the
supervision of international experts in fields such as computer
vision, information retrieval, interaction, media &
communication, logic and semantics, and risk assessment and
decision making.
