Administrative History of Creating Unit

On January 8, 1948, the Board of Trustees authorized the purchase of an EDVAC electronic digital computer for research program use.¹On November 19, 1948, the Board approved space for the computer project.²On January 13, 1949, the Board reallocated funds to university staff for construction of the computer.³By July 16, 1952, the Digital Computer Laboratory was listed in the university budget.⁴In 1954, the laboratory offered "instruction in courses and supervision of theses for individuals specializing in the design and use of the digital computing machinery."⁵In 1964, the name was changed from the Digital Computer Laboratory to the Department of Computer Science.⁶ The department teaches courses in circuit design, computer applications, computer organization, digital computer arithmetic, information retrieval, languages, numerical analysis, patters recognition, software systems, and switching an automata theory.⁷
