学院近年来承担了数百项国家及各部委的大型高水平研究项目，取得了丰硕的成果；获得十多项国家级成果奖，数十项省部级成果奖，上百项专利与软件著作权。经过长期积累与发展，学院已在计算机应用技术、计算机系统结构等学科形成了二十多个具有自身特色的优势学术方向，尤其在人工智能、自然语言处理、智能人机交互、机器学习、脑科学与脑认知、海量数据计算、生物信息学与生物大数据、容错与移动计算、物联网与泛在智能、智能机器人等方面已形成明显特色与标志性成果。
School of Computer Science and Technology
The Computer Specialty in Harbin Institute of Technology was founded in 1956, which is one of the earliest computer disciplines in China. In 1985, it developed into the Department of Computer Science and Engineering. In 2000, the School of Computer Science and Technology was founded. Currently, the School of Computer Science and Technology has one national first class key discipline of Computer Science and Technology, and was selected as the double first-class computer discipline construction group. It ranked A in the fourth round of subject evaluation by the Ministry of Education in2016. The School has one National Teaching Team, one Science and Technology Innovation Team of MOE and one Innovation Research Team of COSTIND. Research platforms include a National Technology Demonstration Center, two Ministry of Education key laboratories, a Ministry of Industry and Information Technology key laboratory.
Hundreds of research projects funded by the state or ministries have been accomplished in the school; fruitful achievements have been gained and awarded by the state, ministries and provinces. More than 100 patents and software copyrights have been achieved by the school. After years of efforts and development, the school has formed more than twenty research fields in the discipline of computer application technology and computer architecture, such as intelligent human-computer interface, natural language understanding and Chinese information processing, mass data processing, computer network and information security, high reliable and fault-tolerant computation, intelligent computing for enterprises and service computing, bio-metrics and bio-computing, intelligent robots, sensor network and mobile computing wearable computing and so on.
