| @Sparky: A lot of C.S. departments are in engineering faculties but (speaking as a computer scientist) I don't think the two have an awful lot in common. Computer Science began in electrical and electronic engineering but I think it's now independent of that heritage. My surprise at the lack of engineering is because, in British universities, engineering (civil, mechanical, electrical, electronic, chemical) is usually one of the largest faculties on campus, regardless of whether you include C.S. |
