Introduce:

Chongqing University’s School of Computer Science is one of the earliest bases for computer science research in Chinese universities. It offered the first master’s and doctoral degree programs in Southwest China in 1978 and 1986, respectively. The school was established in 1998 and was granted a first-level doctoral degree program in 2003. Currently, the school boasts a first-level doctoral degree program in Computer Science and Technology, a postdoctoral research station in Computer Science and Technology, a national key nurturing discipline in Computer Software and Theory, the Ministry of Education’s Key Laboratory of Cyber-Physical-Social Trustworthy Service Computing (CPS), the Ministry of Education’s Shuguang Computer Science Education Base for the 2.0 Program for Top Students in Basic Disciplines (the only one in Chongqing), the Key Laboratory of Software Theory and Technology in Chongqing, and the Municipal Level Experimental Teaching Demonstration Center for Computer Fundamentals. Under the leadership of renowned scholars such as Chen Tinghuai, Tong Fu, Cheng Daijie, and Wu Zhongfu, the school pioneered fields like fault-tolerant computing and parallel distributed processing in China. It has produced a series of internationally leading results, including the publication of the monograph Fault-Tolerant Computing by Springer in Germany in the 1980s. The faculty has trained famous scholars such as Xu Jie, Huang Kaiyuan, and Shen Yidong. The school’s computer science discipline has consistently ranked in the global top 1% in the ESI rankings, with a particularly strong position in the area of Artificial Neural Networks, where it ranks 12th in the world. The school currently has over 130 faculty and staff members, including 9 administrators and more than 100 full-time faculty members. Among the full-time faculty, there are over 30 professors and 40 associate professors. There are more than 40 scholars who have been recognized as IEEE Fellows or other high-level talents. Currently, there are about 100 doctoral students, over 500 master’s students, and around 900 undergraduate students in their second, third, and fourth years.

The school focuses on areas such as computational intelligence and information security, advanced networks and system architecture, machine learning and cross-media perception, as well as big data and service computing. It was the first in the world to propose chaotic cryptosystems and privacy protection mechanisms, ensuring the security of people’s livelihoods and national defense. The school innovatively proposed non-volatile storage mechanisms integrated with computation, solving key challenges in intelligent edge computing architecture for industrial IoT. It also broke through key technologies in 2D/3D model fusion, serving medical care and cultural heritage protection, and developed cross-domain fusion cloud service platforms to support disaster prevention, flight risk warnings, and more in Southwest China, generating significant economic and social benefits.

Relying on the Ministry of Education’s “New Engineering” initiative and the national first-class professional development, the school cultivates outstanding talents who are patriotic, morally sound, and possess a solid foundation in professional knowledge. These talents are equipped to research cutting-edge scientific problems in computer science or solve complex engineering challenges in the computer industry. In recent years, the graduate admission ratio has exceeded 8:1, with nearly 50% of students coming from Double First-Class universities. The quality of the student body continues to improve.

The school’s graduate employment quality and structure have been constantly optimized in recent years, with employment rates ranking at the top. About 20% of students are granted national postgraduate entrance exam exemption each year. The school has become an important base for training high-level talents in the country and in the western region. It has sent over 20,000 professionals in various computer disciplines to military enterprises, government departments, and leading companies such as Microsoft, Huawei, Tencent, as well as experts and professors from prestigious universities like the U.S. National Laboratories, Michigan State University, Nanyang Technological University, and Tsinghua University. In the past five years, students have won 13 provincial and ministerial-level awards for excellent doctoral and master’s theses and over 800 awards have been recorded in more than 800 instances in international and national academic competitions. As the affiliated unit of the National Higher Education Computer Society and the Chongqing Computer Society, the school actively provides advice and strategies for computer teaching and research in China and Chongqing. Full-time faculty members have been invited to serve as associate editors and editorial board members for various social organizations and prestigious journals such as IEEE TNNLS, IEEE TCYB, and IEEE CIM.
