Computers
and communications technologies have changed the world. From command-and-control
systems to control of our automobiles, these technologies play a vital role.
This revolution is only a few decades old, but already futurists talk about the
twenty-first century in terms of the ``information economy,'' the ``information
society,'' and even the ``information age.'' UC Riverside's Department of
Computer Science and Engineering (CSE) is in the center of this revolution,
with programs of instruction and research in a variety of areas within computer
science and electrical engineering technology.

Educational
Philosophy
I assume my students want to learn. True learning requires
hard work. I motivate my students to learn with lots of course work including weekly
homeworks, weekly quizzes, and a comprehensive final exam. My role is to define
what I want students to learn then to help them understand and learn that
material. I try to balance theory and practice so students can see the value of
what they are learning. I convey enthusiasm for the material in lecture and I'm
sure my students can sense that I love my job and that I really care about
their futures. I've been very honored to receive fifteen UCI teaching awards
over the past fifteen years of teaching.
Few people are highly intelligent. Fewer have good ideas. Fewer still can implement them in detail. The fewest can communicate them powerfully. Truely effective people posess all these skills and they iteratively apply them long enough to make a difference.
