Additionally, thiscourse will discuss both the ethics and risks associated with the fields of AI. Topics coveredduring the course fall into 4 major categories: (1) Knowledge, Reasoning, Planning, andUncertain Knowledge, (2) Learning and Philosophical Foundations, (3) Communicating,Perceiving, and Acting, and (4) Ethics and Risks. Previously, the authors have used the “flipped”classroom concept in courses. The flipped classroom, when mastered and done well, has beendemonstrated to be beneficial to the students’ ability to learn material [1]. One of the goals forthis project is for students to help create a repository

At Le Moyne College, an interdisciplinary non-majorscourse was offered titled ‘Cybersecurity for Future Presidents.’ This course, like the one atLoyola, taught students technical skills like encryption, decryption, and packet switching[4].The non-majors courses in cybersecurity that have been designed vary greatly in the style andcontent [6]. Some of the topics covered in these courses are similar to ours: computer networks,cryptography, access controls, threats and human factors, forensics, privacy, ethics, and freespeech, and other computer science fundamentals like, digital representation of information, dataencryption, time complexity, packet switching

Introduction Demand for undergraduate Computer Science and Engineering (CSE) education continues to grow,driven by persistent need for professionals with technical skills. In addition to core technical knowledge,students embarking on a career in CSE must be ready to combine theory and practice in a context wherethe underlying technology continually changes, projects are large-scale and collaborative, and professionalresponsibility and ethics-based decision-making are critical when products are adopted widely. Manystudents seek hands-on industry internship experiences to complement their in-class instruction andprepare for these

Every week students should submit theirdesign, and calculation. For example, if students use SONAR in their project, in the engineeringlogbook they must write all calculations and how to measure distance or in the case of motorconnection to micro-controller they must write in the logbook all calculations for the requiredcurrent.

This may be true; who would not hirea Stanford University graduate simply because the computer science program at Stanford Univer-sity is not accredited by ABET? At the same time, conforming to accreditation standards and peerreview would have helped Stanford or University of Texas avoid headlines that revealed that theircomputer science students have been graduating without taking course work in ethics, somethingABET accreditation standards have required for decades 7 . In contrast, several high-profile andprestigious programs such as MIT are accredited.

Usually these requirements do not include coursessuch as calculus or physics, which are considered as technical courses. These non-technicalgeneral education courses can be divided into two categories. One set of courses appear in almostall schools. For example, all our eight sample universities have a PE (Physical education)requirement and an English requirement. Seven of the eight schools require such courses asPrinciples of Marxism, Contemporary Chinese History, Fundamentals of Moral Ethics and Laws,and Military Theory. The second set of non-technical
