Purpose of Collection:
The Systems & Computer Engineering collection at MacOdrum Library supports the research activities of faculty, students and staff and the instructional requirements of undergraduate and graduate programs. Systems & Computer Engineering is an interdisciplinary area of studies within the Faculty of Engineering & Design. As such, the collection also provides support for, and draws from teaching and research in a wide variety of related fields such as Mathematics & Statistics, Computer Science, Human Computer Interactions, and Physics.
For concrete examples of our collections in action, please visit our Computer Science or Computer Systems Engineering subject guides.
