Computer Science

Departmentalized Faculty

Computer Science at UNB began in the form of individual courses offered under the auspices of the Faculty of Electrical Engineering. Credit and non-credit computing courses were developed in parallel with the expansion of computing facilities during the 1960s. A computing centre was established in 1964 and the Department of Computer Science followed in 1968/69.

The newly created Department provided undergraduate courses but also offered a Masters Degree program specifically in Computer Science. The first Master of Science in Computer Science graduated in 1970. The Bachelor of Science in Computer Science degree program was established soon after, in 1972. In recognition of its growth, the Department became the School of Computer Science in 1974. The School’s Co-operative Education program became operational in May 1982 and soon after received accreditation from the Canadian Association for Co-operative Education (CAFCE). A PhD program was added to the offerings of the School of Computer Science in 1986/87.

In 1990, the School was made into the first Computer Science faculty in Canada. In 2000, the Bachelor of Science in Software Engineering was established as a joint undergraduate program with the Faculty of Engineering. The Bachelor of Information Systems was established in 2007.

School of Graduate Studies

Non departmentalized School

Graduate studies have been part of the University of New Brunswick since the establishment of Kings College in 1829, with the first Master of Arts degree being conferred in 1830. It was not until 1941 that graduate studies began to develop in any systematic way. Until 1950, graduate work was administered by the Faculty Committee on Graduate Studies. In 1950, F. J. Toole was appointed the first Dean of Graduate Studies, a position he held until 1960, when he was replaced by Desmond Pacey.
