Computer Technology

About Major

The computer major was established in Changchun University of Science and Technology in 1977, and it became the School of Computer Science and Technology in 1987. The schoolis one of the only 60 schools that were granted the qualification of conferring doctoral degrees in the first-grade discipline of computer science and technology in China. The school was approved to be the key discipline of Jilin Province on computer science and technology.

Currently, the school has three national research and education platforms including the Special Film Technique and Equipment National-Local Joint Engineering Center, the Pilot Computer Teaching Experiment Center and the Virtual Simulation Experimental Teaching Center of Network Security and Network Attach-Defense. Within these centers, there are 13 laboratories being located in the applied research and engineering. The school has also established long-standing cooperative relationships with some corporations and universities, such as Hitachi Medical Corporation in Japan, Okayama University, and meanwhile, the school is one of the joint graduatetraining schools of information technology within University of Shanghai Cooperation Organization.

Moreover, the school has established long-standing cooperative relationships with a number of well-known multinational and domestic corporations, such as Barco, Lenovo, 360 and so on, and has made every effort to contribute the compound talents of high-level techniques and management capabilities.

About Teachers

Currently, the school has a qualified and responsible teaching team comprised of 52 academic staff including 13 professors (of 25%). There are 36 members having been conferred with doctoral degrees (of 69%), 8 members being entitled with several national- and provincial-level qualifications, such as “The New Century National Hundred, Thousand and Ten Thousand Talent Project”, “JilinProvince Discipline Outstanding Professor” and so on.

The teaching team assembled plenty of academic and engineering professional talents with international academic vision. There are over 60 percent of members having experienced their research work in the well-known universities at abroad, such as University of Pennsylvania (U.S.), Norwegian University of Science and Technology (Norway), etc., and 13 members having obtained their Ph.D. from some famous universities at abroad, such as University of Bordeaux (France), Tokyo Institute of Technology (Japan), etc.

About Cultivation Direction

Through the cultivation, the master degree candidates would gain the proficiency in fundamental theories of computer science and in development of computer application systems, the capability of independently performing special tasks in the field of computer science and technology, the qualifications for jobs of teaching courses in computer application systems and of designing and developing computer application systems.

About practice and training

The professional practices are carried out directed by the supervisors within either the research centers/platform or the companies. Generally, the content of the practice is some part of one research project, during which the students participate in the project as team members. Before the practice, the students are demanded to submit their applications and practice plan. After the practice, they are required to submit their practice report. Referring to the performance of the students during the practice process, it is examined by either the supervisor from the university or the co-supervisor in the company. Once the students pass the examination, he would get 10 credit accordingly, which will be filed by the organization providing the practice. Moreover, the students are encouraged to combine their work during the practice with their thesis in order to propose and present their contribution.
