Khoury College: 40 years of innovation
In the early 1980s, Northeastern University created one of the nation’s first colleges dedicated to the field of computer science (CS). Today, Khoury College of Computer Sciences remains a national leader in CS education and research—continuing to break new ground to solve real-world problems.
1980
The BS in Computer Science was established in the mathematics department of the College of Arts & Sciences.
1985
The former Botolph Building, the oldest structure on Northeastern’s campus, is refurbished and reopened as the David and Margaret Fitzgerald Cullinane Hall. The building is named for the parents of alumnus and trustee John Cullinane, an early pioneer in the database industry who gave generously to support the renovations.
1988
Alan Selman (April 2, 1941 – January 22, 2021) was a mathematician and theoretical computer scientist known for his research on structural complexity theory.
1990
Dr. Brown is named dean of the College; she is the College’s first female dean. Throughout her career, she commits herself to making the concepts of programming accessible and interesting to a broad audience of learners, including more women and people who might not initially see themselves in a technical role.
