Accreditation

The Computer Engineering Undergraduate Program in the Department of Computer Science & Engineering at the University of Buffalo is accredited by ABET.
The Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET) is a federation of 31 professional engineering and technical societies. Since 1932, ABET has provided quality assurance of education through accreditation. ABET accredits more than 2400 engineering, engineering technology, computing and applied science programs at over 500 colleges and universities nationally. ABET is recognized by the Council on Higher Education Accreditation.

CSE professor Russ Miller along with Nobel Laureate Herb Hauptman developed an algorithm for crystal structure determination which is regarded as one of the top 10 algorithms of the 20th century. Miller helped establish the Center for Computation Research (CCR) at UB in 1998, which was ranked as the largest academic supercomputing centers world-wide in 2001.

For Graduate Students we have available an online application and downloadable supporting forms.
