The Department of Computer Science in UP Diliman is celebrating its 26th Anniversary and as part of the celebration, the first-ever grand alumni homecoming entitled "CS Royale" will be held on February 24, 2007, at 2:30 pm in its new home, the College of Engineering Library and Computer Science building. It is the highlight of this year’s Computer Science Week celebration on February 19-24.
Through the years, the department has produced several BPI Science and P&G Excellence awardees, Outstanding Engineering Faculty Members, a number of Undergraduate Research Competition winners, and a curriculum that is always adjusted to adapt to the dynamic field it is in and to contribute to the university’s principle of honoring excellence.
With annual freshmen orientation, a number of department-sponsored events and competitions, Mentoring Program for Freshmen, GeeCS for academic-related events, and 22 CS Weeks so far, it surely has activities for the solid education of the students.
Also, being in a dynamic field, the department has gone through vast changes: from ES to ECS to CS; from a few lecture rooms to a new building; from "the youngest department" to "one of the best departments"; and from paper submission of academic requirements to online, instantaneous submission. This shows that it has gone through transformations, and every step of the way, a CS student has contributed to its advancement.
If you were a part of the CS Department, no matter what period, your Department is inviting you to be home once again. Witness how it has grown; better yet, be a part of it.
