The Department of Computer Science was founded by people who had a vision. This vision was how computer science would fit into the unique spirit of Yale University, an institution oriented to an unusual degree around undergraduate education and close interdepartmental collaboration. The Department has always had close ties to mathematics and engineering, but has increasingly experienced collaborations with other disciplines important to Yale, including psychology, linguistics, economics, business, statistics, music, medicine, physics and more. It is through these collaborations that the importance of computer science in a broader sense is best appreciated.

Vladimir Rokhlin
has been elected to the National Academy of Engineering (NAE). Election to the NAE is among the highest professional distinctions accorded to an engineer. Academy membership honors those who have made outstanding contributions to engineering research, practice, or education.

On February 7, 2008 the Yale College Faculty approved a new major on
Computing and the Arts.” The new major is designed for students interested in
integrating work in computing and one of the arts disciplines: Art, History
of Art, Music or Theater Studies.

Joan Feigenbaum has been added to the Science Council for the Global Environment for Network Innovations (GENI), along with 3 others. The new members will join 15 current members of the council in providing scientific guidance for the GENI project -- a proposed experimental facility to allow research on a wide variety of problems in communications, networking, and distributed systems.
