Tóm tắt

The Mathematics and Computer Science Department at the University of San Diego recently revised the curriculum for its B.A. in Computer Science program to make it more compatible with a liberal arts college setting. In this paper, we present our process of revision, including a discussion on the LACS 2007 model we adopted and how to reflect accreditation requirement at the same time. We also discussed how the revised curriculum can incorporate high impact educational practices. © 2012 IEEE.
