The Department of Computer Science moved into our current facilities in May 2007. Some highlights of our quarters include:

An introductory teaching lab and open lab, available on an extensive schedule (until midnight or 1:00 am most nights).
An AI and capstone lab for student projects.
A systems lab that allows experimentation with networking and operating systems, in an environment that is isolated from other campus networks.
A regular, reconfigurable classroom for non-lab-based courses.
A CS Learning Center for studying and peer mentoring.
Two student study areas and a CS commons.
Five faculty research labs that are sufficiently large to support student teams.
Faculty offices, display cases, a print room, and other supporting pieces.

Computer equipment and A/V support

All teaching labs, our classroom, and our research labs utilize GNU/Linux-based workstations that are connected through our departmental network (MathLAN) to departmental servers and the campus Internet backbone.

Audio/visual facilities in each teaching lab and our classroom support a built-in desktop machine, DVD/VHS player, laptop connection, and CD player. A control panel allows the presenter to switch from one system to another at the touch of a button.
