The College has a diverse full-time faculty of 41, and offers a broad array of educational opportunities to students. In addition to Bachelor’s, Master’s, and PhD programs in the computing discipline, the College offers several innovative undergraduate and graduate degree programs that combine computing with an important application domain. Eleven faculty members have joint appointments with other academic departments, including Electrical and Computer Engineering, Art and Design, Health Sciences, Physics, and Political Science. The College has 615 undergraduates, 597 Masters, and 99 Ph.D. students.
Northeastern University is home to 20,000 students and to the nation’s premier cooperative education program. The past decade has witnessed a dramatic increase in Northeastern’s international reputation for research and innovative educational programs. A heightened focus on interdisciplinary research and scholarship is driving a faculty hiring initiative at Northeastern, advancing its position amongst the nation’s top research universities. The College has been a major participant in this initiative and will continue the efforts this year, with additional interdisciplinary searches ongoing in related areas.
Northeastern University is located on the Avenue of the Arts in Boston’s historic Back Bay. The College occupies a state of the art building opposite Boston’s Museum of Fine Arts.
