Our New Home

In April of 2000, construction started on Sennott Square at the University of Pittsburgh. After two years of work (check out our pictorial timeline), the project is complete. This $35 million building houses Pitt's Department of Computer Science on the 5th and 6th floors. The building is equipped with state of the art facilities and holds both graduate and undergraduate offices, faculty offices, and teaching and research laboratories.

The pictures provided below capture only a glimpse of what's available. We are very excited about the new building and the opportunities it will offer for fostering and continuing interaction among faculty, undergraduate and graduate students, and industry partners. Come join us and play a part in this new phase of the CS department's 30+ year history.

The two year construction of this building can be viewed in a pictorial timeline as seen through the camera lens of Bob Hoffman.
