Computer Laboratory, University of Cambridge Computer Laboratory, University of Cambridge The Computer Laboratory is the computer science department of the University of Cambridge. As of 2007, it employs 35 academic staff, 25 support staff, 35 affiliated research staff, and about 155 research students. The current head of department is Professor Ann Copestake. The Cambridge University Computer Laboratory was founded as the "Mathematical Laboratory" under the leadership of John Lennard-Jones on 14 May 1937, though it did not get properly established until after World War II. The new laboratory was housed in the North Wing of the former Anatomy School, on the New Museums Site. Upon
School of Physics and Technology of University of Kharkiv Higher Mathematics is a successor to the Department of Theoretical Physics, which was created at the School of Physics and Mathematics of Kharkiv State University in 1933, and thus it is older than the School of Physics and Technology. Lev Landau played a crucial role in establishing the department. Here he started implementing his plans for the reorganization of training of theoretical physicists and creation of his "Course of Theoretical Physics". It was Landau who compiled the first programs for the courses on theoretical physics at the department. In 1940-1973, the department was headed by Aleksander Akhiezer, whose name is
