The College of Computing at the Georgia Institute of Technology has roots stretching back to an Information Science degree established in 1964. In 1988, Tech president John Patrick Crecine elevated the School of Information and Computer Science to become the College of Computing, making Georgia Tech the second university to do so, after Carnegie Mellon University created their School of Computer Science.

  • The College of Computing at the Georgia Institute of Technology has roots stretching back to an Information Science degree established in 1964. In 1988, Tech president John Patrick Crecine elevated the School of Information and Computer Science to become the College of Computing, making Georgia Tech the second university to do so, after Carnegie Mellon University created their School of Computer Science. Beyond using contemporary computer technology, the College of Computing also seeks new concepts and technology, with symbiotic connections to departments in other Colleges of Georgia Tech, in a holistic manner, such as combining with studies in human psychology, medical science, liberal arts, and business. As an example of the interdisciplinary symbiosis connections, the degree program for B.S. in Computational Media is offered jointly within Georgia Tech's Ivan Allen College of Liberal Arts, with each College fostering advancements in the other. The College of Computing also has a tradition of a symbiosis between faculty and students: since the early years, older students have been assisting professors in research, even with some students becoming technology team heroes and champions of new computer and software systems at Georgia Tech. Faculty members in the College of Computing have been receptive to new technology developed with students, rather than demanding outside ideas and "Not Invented Here" computer systems. In 2008, U.S. News & World Report ranked the College of Computing 9th in a survey of all U.S. computer science graduate programs. In June 2008, College of Computing Dean Richard DeMillo announced plans for his resignation, citing conflicts with Georgia Tech provost and interim president Gary Schuster. DeMillo was temporarily replaced by James D. Foley, a professor in the School of Interactive Computing, until a permanent replacement could be found.
