Welcome to Computer Science
There has never been a better time to become qualified in Computer Science - the number of jobs available and the salary levels for graduates continue to rise year by year.
Our focus has always been on great teaching informed by great research, and with the recent move into the Owheo building we now have a single location for our labs, tutorials and research activities, and state of the art facilities.
Our graduates find that a multitude of professions are available to them - in the legal, financial and business fields through to games development, software engineering and computer graphics.

Timed to run in conjunction with the teaching & learning focussed "Mobility in Education" seminars, these free 3 hour hands-on workshops will focus on the most important parts of the iPhone SDK to get you started writing Apps for Apple mobile devices - the iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad.
The Computer Science department is hosting one of these workshops.
The workshop is aimed specifically at students who study computing science, computer engineering, information technology, mathematics, creative arts/design or related disciplines and/or have an interest in developing applications for these portable devices. Staff from member Universities are also welcome to attend.
Workshops will be run around New Zealand (and Australia) and are strictly limited to the first 25 applicants.
More information, and instructions on how to register are available at:

Dr Zhiyi Huang is organising the The 2010 International Workshop on Programming Models and Applications for Multicores and Manycores (to be held December 8-11, 2010, Wuhan, China).
About the workshop:
"Rapid advancements in multicore and chip-level multi-threading technologies open new challenges and make multicore systems a part of the computing landscape. From high-end servers to mobile phones, multicores are steadily entering every single aspect of the information technology.
However most programmers are trained in sequential programming, yet most existing parallel programming models are prone to errors such as data race and deadlock. Therefore to fully utilise multicore hardware, parallel programming models that allow easy transition of sequential programs to parallel programs with good performance and development of error-free codes are urgently needed.
This workshop is dedicated primarily to gather researchers and practitioners addressing the main challenges and share experiences in the emerging multicore software engineering and distributed programming paradigm, and in addition, to provide a discussion forum for people interested in programming environments, models, applications and tools specifically designed for parallel multi/many-core hardware environments."
