Computer Science at UCF has a relatively long tradition. Since more than 25 years we offer a complete cycle of study in Computer Science, including Bachelor, Master, and PhD (1st, 2nd, and 3rd level, according to the Bologna framework), where the instruction language of the Master/PhD programs is English. Our group of researchers and instructors also includes statisticians, along with we designed specializations in “Data Science” within our degrees.

Our faculty is also involved in offering novel educational programs. Besides the new professional master in “Digital Humanities”, we are planning an innovative Bachelor course in “Digital Management”, which offers students the possibility of acquiring advanced skills on ICT, Management and Economics, in strict collaboration with companies and startuppers.

The main research activities on “Computer and Data Science” at DAIS are organized around two centers: “Center for AdvanCes in Autonomous, DIstributed and pervAsive systems” (ACADIA) and “Center for Knowledge, Interaction and Intelligent Systems” (KIIS). The ACADIA center aims at contributing effective answers to the scientific and technological issues underlying several challenges related to the development of software and systems, including distributed and cloud ones, with characteristics of dependability, security, and correctness. The KIIS center emphasizes the research challenges concerning three main dimensions, namely data and knowledge management, multimodal interactive interfaces, and intelligent artificial and computer vision systems that mimic human cognitive abilities.
