Department of
Computer Science
The Department of Computer
Science is located at The Centre for Computing and Engineering - 245
Church Street. Moriyama & Teshima designed the new Centre for Computing
and Engineering on the urban campus of Ryerson University in the heart
of downtown Toronto, Canada. The building features a sculptural treatment
of the Church Street facade that dramatically changes throughout the
day as the sun and ambient light varies. At times reflective and at
time transparent, the building is a distinctive symbol of Ryerson.
The facility brings together a number of departments including Aerospace,
Civil Engineering, Computing Science and Electrical and Computing Engineering.
Design started in February 2002 and the facility opened to students
in the fall term of 2004.

Job Growth in Computer Science
Tue, 05 Jan 2010
Where the Jobs Are..
The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) recently released a 10-year
forecast of job growth that projects "professional and related"
occupations will increase by 16.8 percent between 2008 and 2018. The
professional and related category, which includes computer science jobs,
is expected to be the fastest growing category of the 10 major BLS
occupational groups. All occupations are projected to grow an average of
10.1 percent. The professional and related category is comprised of eight
occupational clusters, including computer and mathematical jobs. The
government forecasts a 22.2 percent increase in computer and mathematical
jobs by 2018. Moreover, computer science occupations are projected to
account for nearly 60 percent of all job growth among all fields of
science and engineering over the next eight years. About 13.4 percent of
job growth in science and engineering fields is likely to be in
engineering positions.
