That means, we treat (in order) CMOS transistors (briefly),logic gates, latches, logic structures, (MUX, Decoder, Adder), memory, the Von Neumann modelof execution, a simple computer (the LC-2), machine language programming of the LC-2,assembly language programming of the LC-2, the high level language C, and finally some basicanalysis of the algorithms the students have written. The idea is to continually build on what hasgone before, so that nothing is magic, and everything can be tied to the foundation that hasalready been laid.EECS 100 was developed primarily by the authors, although it has benefited greatly from inputfrom (first) other members of the Computer Science and Engineering curriculum committee, inparticular Ann Ford and

skills need to be part of theinstruction in the foundation courses. This is not without controversy. Vasquez deVelasco and Clayton [1999] see an introductory CAAD course as a necessary prerequisitefor participation in design studios that employ computer methods. On the other hand,some worry that the addition of such a course into already crowded curricula may comeat the expense of displacing traditional subjects and call for integrating computerinstruction within the existing courses. Several ideas on balancing this have beendiscussed at a special session titled Ideal Digital Curriculum, in a recent ECAADEconference, in Helsinki [PENTILLA, 2001: 165-199]. Digital skills bearing on

Systems (CIS) program. Currently, our undergraduate program is undergoingABET accreditation while our graduate specialization curriculum is certified by the NSAthrough the Committee on National Security Systems (CNSS).The focus of our four, three graduate hour, class specialization is enterprise securityassessment and evaluation. Three of the courses have published technical goals. [1] Froma technical perspective, our learning outcomes include a variety of areas including:computer security, network security, applied cryptography, and Internet security.Consequently, the learning modules that we have developed may be utilized in a numberof technical areas. For example, our colleagues in Computer Engineering Technologyhave incorporated several of
computational tools to predict materialproperties, in addition to using analytical tools to measure them. We feel it is essential toincorporate some of these tools, as well as knowledge of the theories on which they are based,into our undergraduate curriculum. One opportunity to do so is in our junior-level Introductionto Physics of Materials course. This is a two-quarter sequence, required by MSE majors, thatintroduces quantum mechanics and applications to materials and engineering, band structures,cohesive energy, thermal behavior, electrical conduction, etc. The first quarter emphasizes anintroduction to quantum mechanics; the second quarter emphasizes applications, and is taughtwith a weekly two-hour laboratory.

numerical problems inmaterials science.Students in our mechanical engineering program are required to have had a computer courseprior to entering college and are also required to take an entry level computer programmingcourse during their first year (though many test out of this requirement). These courses do notteach matlab and cover only rudimentary topics such as if-else statements, for/while loops, andassignments to variables and matrices. It is only recently that the computer science departmenthas moved from teaching Visual Basic to teaching C++. By the time our students reach theirsenior years they have had only what programming has been incorporated into projects orassignments throughout our curriculum. The author knows of only one course on
teaching.Usually, for the experienced instructor, new material development requires shorter preparationtime for each hour of classroom time than for new instructors. It is also helpful, if teachingassistants are well versed in the CAS, to the level of being able to develop large programs and tofully use CAS capabilities. However, keep in mind that CAS systems are only tools and are noreplacing subject matters. The software allows a student to concentrate on the final solutions byspending minimum time on lengthy mathematical computations and/or tedious programming andnumerical computations. The benefits offered by these systems are significant and should beexploited in the undergraduate technology curriculum towards enhancing students’ knowledgeand for

PUC started a program in Computer Graphics Technology(CGT) in the Fall 2000 semester. The course curriculum development wasinfluenced by existing successful course offerings within the Purdue system, bynationally known universities, and by regional job demands, as well asinternational considerations. Figures 1 and 2 show the growth in credit hours andthe increase in students in the CGT program between 2001 and 2004. In the spaceof a few years, laboratories were built, faculty hired, and many new coursesdeveloped to meet this demand. In the face of all this growth, and the number ofchanges that were occurring

At the University of Illinois, options rangefrom areas like “CS + Advertising,” “CS + Economics,” and “CS + Music” [35]. Apart from theemergence of
