There is a total of over4,700,000 Computer Science job openings that cannot be satisfied by the current graduatingcohort. The prediction for the next 10 years shows substantial potential for job openings with anaverage predicted job growth rate of 18%. Moreover, BLS shows that the median pay per yearranges up to $150,000, showing strong positive job prospects. Overall, the unfulfilled need andhigh median pay strongly demonstrate the impact of obtaining a computing degree, forindividuals and the nationwide economy.Colleges and universities have been seeing

engineering education, CBE provides a transition from universityto industry. Many parallels exist between CBE and industry practices, in particular thosesurrounding design-based concepts. In industry, new-product development (NPD) requiresattention to detail at the individual project, business, and systems level to create a successfulproduct launch [2], whereas university engineering design courses tend to focus on the individualproject level. Cooper’s [2] NPD success drivers often reflect the type of skills that are a focus inCBE. For individual new-product projects, overlapping concepts include voice-of-the-customer,pre-work, definition, and iterations. Building in the voice-of-the-customer may involve marketresearch for businesses, whereas
