Departmental News

Professor Healy quoted in the NY Times

In a New York Times story about graduate school and the likelihood of failing grades, Furman computer science professor Christopher Healy offered his expertise on the matter. Healy, who researches and compiles grade distributions, said “about 75 percent of grades in master’s programs are A’s, 22 percent are B’s and 3 percent are C’s. Less than 1 percent are D’s or F’s.” http://newspress.furman.edu/?p=2569

About FU Computer Science

Furman's strong, well-established computer science program has much to offer students: chief among these are a dedicated faculty and state-of-the-art equipment and facilities.

One of the department's most distinctive characteristics is the availability of research and internship opportunities under the guidance of the computer science faculty.

Majors have assisted faculty members in research supported by grants from NASA, the National Science Foundation, the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, Apple Computer, and the Biomedical Research Infrastructure.

Furman CS majors have gone on to work for Apple, AT&T, Cisco Systems, Hewlett-Packard, IBM, Microsoft, NCR, and Texas Instruments.

We offer three main laboratories, a student lounge, complete wireless access, a 32-node cluster computer, and a teaching theatre with state-of-the-art video presentation facilities.

But we don't like to brag.
