The Department of Computer Science at the University of British Columbia was established in May 1968. UBC CS is located at the UBC Point Grey campus in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. As of November 2023, it has 66 faculty, 64 staff, 259 graduate students, and 2,774 undergraduates.
History
The Computer Science department was established in May 1968 by six founding UBC faculty members:
After more than a decade working with Atomic Energy of Canada, Dr. Kennedy joined the department in January 1966 as Director of the Computing Centre, a position he held until June 1980. The Computing Centre served computing needs across the university, including Computer Science. In addition, he became a professor in the Department of Computer Science in 1968.
Hugh Dempster was one of the founding members of the Department of Computer Science in 1968. Prior to that, Hugh had worked at UBC in the Computing Centre.
Edward Argyle, another founding member, had worked at the Dominion Radio Astrophysical Lab in Penticton and published widely on computer science and astrophysics.
Founding member, Wilfred J. Hansen wrote one of the founding texts on data structures, "Data Structures" and "Data Structures in Pascal".
John L. Allard was a founding faculty member.
John J.E.L. Peck was the first Department Head and remained so until 1977.
