  1. The Indiana University School of Informatics Bobby Schnabel: Dean, Indiana University School of Informatics Presented by Geoffrey Fox: Associate Dean for Research and Graduate Studies Bloomington School of Informatics and Computing

  2. What is Informatics? • Computer Science, In Europe • Science of Information • Analysis and Application of Data • Applied Computing • In Bloomington School of Informatics and Computing we cover all these themes

  3. Broad Range of fundamental and applied Computer Science and Information Technology A Broad Range of Applications, including those with Human and Societal Implications

  4. Background & Structure of the School • Established in 2000 as first of its kind in the United States • Includes Informatics and Computer Science in Bloomington.(Computer Science was established In 1971 and became part of SoI in 2005) • Bloomington School renamedInformatics and ComputingJuly 1 2009 • Includes Informatics at Indiana University-Purdue University at Indianapolis ( IUPUI ) • Not like most i-Schools

  5. Indianapolis Bloomington

  6. Themes of the School • Excellence in education and research • Partnership for economic development and entrepreneurship especially within state • Diversity-participation of women and underrepresented minorities

  9. Graduate Degree Programs • PhD Informatics Computer Science • Masters (MS) Bioinformatics (Chemical Informatics) Computer Science Human Computer Interaction/Design HCI/Music Informatics Security Informatics (Generic Masters)

  10. Research in BloomingtonSchool of Informatics and Computing • http://www.infomall.org/I399/SOICResearch.html • This is a Summary divided into 3 broad areas • Largely Informatics • Largely Applied Computer Science • Traditional core Computer Science

  11. Largely Informatics • Security • Bioinformatics • Cheminformatics • Health Informatics • Music Informatics • Complex Networks and Systems • Social Informatics • Human Computer Interaction Design • These fields are covered in many universities but sometimes not in Computer Science (although Security often in CS)

  12. Largely Applied Computer Science • Cyberinfrastructure and High Performance Computing • Data, Databases and Search • Ubiquitous Computing • Robotics • Visualization and Computer Graphics • These are fields you will find in many computer science departments but are focused on using computers

  13. Largely Core Computer Science • Computer Architecture • Computer Networking • Programming Languages and Compilers • Artificial Intelligence, Artificial Life and Cognitive Science • Computation Theory and Logic • Quantum Computing • These are traditional important fields of Computer Science providing ideas and tools used in Informatics and Applied Computer Science
