Our Facilities
Our department has excellent research and
teaching facilities.
Sitterson Hall, built in 1987, is the home of the
Department of Computer Science. The building is a
state-of-the-art facility with office space for all members
of the department, conference areas, study areas, classrooms
and teleclassrooms, and specialized
research laboratories
for graphics and image processing, computer building and
design, and collaborative, distributed, and parallel systems.
The laboratories, offices, conference areas, and classrooms
are bound together by the department's fully integrated,
distributed
computing environment. Each student is assigned to
a two- or three-person office. All students have
their own personal computer or workstation, and all have
access to a variety of cutting-edge equipment.
Our students have access to the entire University
library system, which includes a major academic affairs
library and several satellite libraries containing
almost five million books and periodicals, as well as
to libraries at nearby Duke and North Carolina State
universities, with a unified on-line searching
capability. The Brauer Library, in Phillips Hall
(next door to Sitterson Hall), is a satellite
library with extensive holdings in computer science,
mathematics, operations research, physics, and statistics.
Students may attend courses at both Duke and North Carolina
State universities. They can also take courses held at
remote locations via the
North Carolina Research and Education Network (NC-REN)
televideo link.
