The BOK can be attained through a combination of formaleducation, both baccalaureate and post-baccalaureate, and experience. Several engineeringcolleges, including Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology (RHIT), were invited by TCAP3 todesign model curricula compliant with the formal education component of the BOK. We willdiscuss the process used to evaluate our curriculum with the goal of designing a BOK curriculumwithin our four-year undergraduate program.

Abstract Your Voice is Power is a curriculum that seeks to promote racial equity and increaseinterest in computing careers by integrating elements of computing, music, social justice, self-expression, and entrepreneurship. The curriculum consists of five modules lasting 60-90 minuteseach. Students engage with music through lyrical analysis to extract and explore present themesof social justice using the OUTKAST Imagination framework. Students then engage withmusical concepts from a computing perspective to create their own remixes using EarSketch, aweb-based, learn-to-code through music platform developed at Georgia Institute of Technology(Georgia Tech). These elements are further supported by discussions around racial justice andthe

By stating a set of constraints, students are provided with a definitive goal that must betaken into account throughout all subsequent stages of the design process. A set of criteria mustbe developed for the purposes of evaluating competing designs. Some of the criteria flownaturally from the constraints; for example, having a tower capable of bearing a certain load asspecified in the constraints can result in the establishment of a criterion that rewards designs thatcan bear loads greater than those specified. Additionally, the set of criteria should be generatedto require students to consider
