The Thomas Lord Department of Computer Science
The University of Southern California’s Department of Computer Science is marking a new era with a new name — the USC Thomas Lord Department of Computer Science, in honor of benefactor Thomas Lord.
The naming gift is part of the Frontiers of Computing, a $1-billion-plus, multiyear initiative which unites USC’s leadership in computing research and education across disciplines, with a focus on artificial intelligence and machine learning, data science, blockchain and quantum information, among others
