A pairwise linkage could be a soft link in which conceptual materialfrom an earlier course could be assumed and built upon in the higher level course of the linkage.More interestingly, a pairwise linkage could also be a hard link such as that formed by havingterm project teams consist of students from both courses. It is our working belief that byimplementing over time a set of pairwise linkages across a curriculum that faculty support willevolve towards more support for further developing such linkages and, more importantly,towards maintaining the linkages.A specific example is a concern about the lack of strong quantitative problem solving ability forundergraduate engineering students as manifest in student understanding of computer

the need for developing skills inCybersecurity. Though many Universities offer a master’s degree in Cybersecurity, it isimpractical to fill this huge demand for Cybersecurity through only graduate degree holders.After careful analysis, it has become evident that there is a gap in the curriculum as it relates totraining for Cybersecurity concepts in foundational computing courses for students. To be morespecific, there is relatively less focus on the infusion of Cybersecurity concepts in undergraduatecomputing courses and its impact on classroom practices. This paper serves to address this gapby providing an experience in infusing, teaching, and assessing Cybersecurity modules in variousundergraduate computing courses that immerse students in

This paper outlines the inclusion of a course called Computer Aided Engineering (CAE),which would traditionally be offered at the graduate level, into an undergraduate curriculum as atool to educate and train students early-on as industry-ready professionals. A junior-level course,CAE consists of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), Finite Element Analysis (FEA),Computer Aided Design (CAD) and optimization. Although students get trained to use CADsoftware as freshmen, they need additional training on analysis and optimization of engineeringsystems prior to capstone design series.

Course level assessment is one of those units and is usuallydone within a course using tests, homework, projects, presentations etc. without looking at theconnected courses and their learning outcomes. Although course level assessment uses most ofthe resources under assessment and is considered an essential feedback path in making thecurricular changes, very little effort has been devoted to reliable measures of student learning asthey go through a sequence
