No posts for over a year? Yikes. Is nothing going on in CS@VT? Well … quite the opposite. Lots has been going on. Like hiring several new faculty members. And like seeing our undergraduate enrollment grow by about 40% in three years. And the group of companies hiring out students is growing at least that fast. This has the feel of the third big boom in computer science enrollments. The first was around the time the PC emerged, the second coincided with the explosion of the Web, and now — it’s mobile, it’s ubiquity, it’s natural interfaces, it’s the cloud, it’s a million things. A really exciting time, again, to be in computing!
