The Department of Computer Science is proud to announce that Dr. Jerry Weinberg will be taking over for Dr. Bernard Waxman as the new department chair. Dr. Weinberg has worked for the CS department for nine years and served as acting Chair in 2003. Dr. Waxman will be teaching this fall semester and will take over as interim Dean of the School of Engineering at the beginning of the 2006.

A CS Department Chair typically serves a three year term, but may serve multiple terms. Dr. Weinberg is the fifth faculty member to hold the position of Chair of the Department of Computer Science since it's founding in 1986. Faculty members that have previously held this position include Dr. Bernard Waxman, Dr. Marilynn Livingston, Dr. Greg Stephen, and Dr. Jimmie Hattemer (pictured left).
