Overview

The school of computer science and technology was founded in June 2004 at Donghua University. The history of the school can be dated back to 1983 when the major of computer application was first established. The school started its master’s degree program in computer application in 1986. Our computer science discipline has been listed in the top 1% of ESI in the world since May 2019. We now provide five undergraduate programs five master’s programs and one phD program. The curriculum spans the most important areas of computing, information and technology. The undergraduate program of Software engineering is selected as the first batch Excellent engineer education and training program by Ministry of Education of the People's Republic of China, and it is the first class undergraduate major in Shanghai. Currently there are more than 80 faculty and staff actively working in the school. We work closely with many prestigious IT companies including IBM, MICROSOFT, BAIDU, TRANSWAP, etc.. Our graduates are widely distributed in many fields and make positive contributions to the society.

Our global focus manifests itself in several ways: active participation and hosting of international conferences and activities, ever-increasing internationally-oriented academic programs and overseas study programs in the U.S.A , Europe and Australia. 50% of our faculty have overseas education background, and students and scholars who come here are from different countries.
