Abstract

Our department has recently revisited its computer science program in the light of IEEE/ACM Computing Curricula 2001 (CC2001) recommendations, taking into consideration the ABET's Criteria for Accrediting Computing programs (CAC 04-05). The effort resulted in a revised curriculum. This paper presents the different decisions we made with regard to the curriculum orientation, knowledge units coverage, transition management, and monitoring and assessment. The paper also sheds some light on challenges faced. Tables provided in the paper show that the curriculum successfully implements CC2001 recommendations while satisfying the CAC 04-05.
