The famous computer scientist Edsger Dijkstra once said that "Computer science is no more about computers than astronomy is about telescopes." The many applications of Computer Science such as robotics, artificial intelligence, computer security, networks and human-computer interaction are as diverse as the disciplines into which the ideas and theories of computer science have spread.

As might be expected, Computer Science Faculty possess equally diverse experiences in both their backgrounds and research interests. Here, at the University of Idaho, Computer Science Faculty are actively involved in such work as biological modeling, computer chip design, collaborative virtual environments, embedded systems, critical infrastructure protection, and image processing. The pages linked here offer more detailed, personal presentations of faculty work, teaching and interests.
