FACULTY OF COMPUTER SCIENCE & INFORMATION SYSTEM The Faculty of Computer Science and Information System (FSKSM) was formally established in 1991. Now, the faculty has entered a new, exciting, and challenging era. We are creating a preeminent world-class computer science and informatics institute known for its pursuit of excellence in academic programs, leading-edge research, and impact on local and global economic development and quality of life. Our programs provide students with a firm technical foundation; also knowledge of the organizational and industrial context of computer science and information systems and a vision of the possibilities of emerging fields. We are committed to the delivery of excellent post graduate programs as well as the pursuit of first class research in all major computer science and informatics disciplines and a growing number of interdisciplinary fields such as Bioinformatics. As FSKSM moved into the new millennium in the year 2000, as a strategy to improve its competitiveness and focus, the post-graduate programmes in FSKSM were re-organized into five courses, each with clearly defined mission and objectives. In addition to our educational programs, research is a most important aspect of the faculty. As such, the faculty is in a position to generate new knowledge by the pursuit of high quality research and to foster economic development through cooperative research and technology transfer with the private sector. Within the faculty, there are several outstanding research facilities including the Artificial Intelligent and Bioinformatics Lab, the Computer Graphics and Multimedia Lab, the Information Systems and Database lab, the Industrial Computing Lab, and the Computer and Network Security Lab.
