The Department is pleased to welcome Ian Stavness to faculty. Ian has established a strong research program involving biomedical computation, biomechanics and computer graphics. He is actively involved in the OpenSim and Parametric Human projects, developing state-of-the-art human body simulations. A University of Saskatchewan undergraduate, he completed a PhD at UBC and continued to Stanford as a post-doc, among other things, working with dentists on models of jaws and dentition.

The Department of Computer Science Professional Internship Program allows undergraduate students to obtain 12 or 16 months of practical "on-the-job" experience with a sponsoring company prior to completing the final year of their undergraduate degree program. The existence of a formally recognized internship program offers significant benefits to the students, to the industrial sponsors, to the department, and to the university as a whole. These benefits include: practical training and work experience for the students; technology transfer, productive work contribution, and prospective employee evaluation for the employer; and increased university-industry interaction for the department and the university. We are now accepting applications from companies and students interested in partcipating in the program. Interns will be placed in May/Sept 2013.
