University of Toronto Department of Computer Science
DCS at UT faculty of arts and science is a world renowned institute for its research and education in computer science. It provides a wide varieties of programs for undergraduate training and graduate research. It's formally formed on July 1, 1964. Since then many world class researchers had worked there and had brought many significant contributions to the global communities of computer science. This includes Steve Cook with his NP-completeness theory, which had him received a Turing Award. Also in 1983, Turing programming language was developed by Ric Holt and Jim Cordy, which it received many rewards and being used widely at the time.[3]
