Engineering. In 1965 the division was renamed to the School of Engineering and became
accredited by the Engineers' Council for Professional Development in 1966. In 1973, an
inter-disciplinary Computer Science program was added to the curriculum, and in 1976 the
school was renamed the School of Engineering and Computer Science. In 1996 the school was
renamed the College of Engineering and Computer Science.
