Backup Questions

Why? What’s driving your changes? Global competitiveness? Nature of the field? Decline in enrollment? Concern over diversity? Preparation for changing workplace or graduate school?

Is undergrad CS dying? Is there a future for undergraduate Computer Science degrees? Or does the future belong to informatics, robotics, computational media, and other new degrees?

Are we backsliding? How do you expect your graduates to compare to graduates from 10 years ago?

What is the role for standards? Do you relate your curricula to ACM/IEEE Computing Curriculum standards? ABET? Do you teach the same things described by these standards, or are you teaching something else? Is there a role for standards in today’s curricula?
