For this reason, we decided that it might be bestto add a new area of specialization to our Computer Science program called DatabaseEngineering.Recently, we have been evaluating the content of our Database Engineering curriculum to makesure that we are covering enough materials in this track. In this process, we consulted with ouradvisory board members, industry experts and academic professionals in this field. Thisconsultation has concluded that our Database Engineering curriculum does not address DataMining / Data Warehousing areas. To remedy this issue, our Database Engineering curriculumhas been extended by addition of a new data mining course. This course will be a core course forour Database Engineering area

Course content builds upon subject matter taught in previous courses, including thenew data communication and networking course and the redesigned routing design andimplementation course. Education will revolve around carrier-class routing technologies,including label switching and advanced BGP implementations. In addition, students will learnabout some of the more advanced options available with Interior Gateway Protocols, such asOSPF and EIGRP. On the local area network side, core switching topics such as Spanning Treeand switch /router redundancy protocols will be reinforced and expanded

is vital that parallel computingconcepts be integrated into undergraduate computer science curriculum. Educators need toprepare their students for the parallel era.Parallel Computing Courses in ChinaA majority of universities in China have integrated parallel computing concepts into theircurriculum7. These universities have taken two different approaches for integrating parallelconcepts in to their programs. One approach has been to offer a new course on parallelprocessing. The other approach has been to alter the content of an existing course. Following isa list of traditional courses that have been altered to introduce mutli-core processing concepts: • Computer Organization • Computer Architecture • Operating System
