Cooperative PhD - Computer Science

Southern Illinois University Edwardsville

The SIUE School of Engineering participates in the Doctor of Philosophy in computer science offered by the College of Science at SIUC. A memorandum of understanding exists between the campuses that designates SIUE as an approved residence center. As a result, the coursework completed at SIUE is applicable toward SIUC's residency requirements.

The cooperative PhD program is supported by research activities and projects of the SIUE School of Engineering faculty. The School is housed in the 190,000-square-foot Engineering Building that features state-of-the-art laboratories for research and instruction. The conditions of this cooperative PhD program are outlined on the Memorandum of Understanding.

The School of Engineering administers the Environmental Resources Training Center (ERTC), and ENGTEC, a cross-disciplinary business, manufacturing and technology incubator, fabrication and proof-of-concept facility. Additionally, the National Corn to Ethanol Research Center (NCERC) is housed on the SIUE campus. With its resources and facilities, the SIUE School of Engineering is strategically well-positioned to provide the best educational experience for our students.
