Computer Science Program Outcomes<br />
Computer science program outcomes correspond to the knowledge, skills and behavior that are we<br />
expect our graduates to possess at the time of their graduation. These outcomes are established and<br />
periodically updated based on constituency input. The outcomes for the computer science program<br />
are:<br />
a. demonstrated capabilities in abstraction, algorithm analysis, computer theory computer<br />
organization and programming language concepts<br />
b. an ability to draw from progressively more complex design-build-test experiences in solving<br />
new problems in individual and team settings<br />
c. an ability to apply quantitative math-science-engineering knowledge relevant to specific<br />
problems<br />
d. a recognition of the need for, and an ability to engage in lifelong learning<br />
e. an understanding of the impact of CS technologies in applied settings (e.g. cultural, social,<br />
ethical)<br />
f. an appreciation of the complexities of designing and implementing a software solution that<br />
meets customer requirements<br />
g. an ability to use suitable writing and speaking skills as part of analyzing, designing,<br />
implementing, testing and fielding solutions<br />
These program outcomes are related to the educational objectives as presented in Table 3.11.<br />
