Rooms, Classrooms and Laboratories

As of the 2022-2023 academic year, the Higher School of Computing pays tribute to various prominent figures in the field of computing by associating their names with some of the spaces: rooms, classrooms and laboratories. The final decision on the characters is the result of a democratic process that was divided into two phases: PHASE I – the ESI community proposed a list of names and the contributions of each of them were valued and, subsequently, they were put to the vote in Phase II. The classrooms and laboratories will maintain their traditional alphanumeric identifier and will be complemented with the names of the illustrious characters.
