Computer & Information Science & Engineering
The Directorate for Computer and Information Science and Engineering has four goals: (1) To enable the U.S. to uphold a position of world leadership in computing, communications, and information science and engineering; (2)To promote understanding of the principles and uses of advanced computing, communications and information systems in service to society; (3) To support and provide advanced cyberinfrastructure to enable and accelerate discovery and innovation across all disciplines; and (4) To contribute to universal, transparent and affordable participation in an information-based society. To achieve these, CISE supports investigator initiated research in all areas of computer and information science and engineering, fosters broad interdisciplinary collaboration, helps develop and maintain cutting-edge national computing and information infrastructure for research and education, and contributes to the development of a computer and information technology workforce with skills essential for success in the increasingly competitive global market.
