How CS Courses Cover Our Program Outcomes

In order to ensure that each graduate meets all program outcomes, CS's required courses must be sufficient to guarantee coverage. The following list indicates which courses cover each outcome.

Outcomes expected of all ABET-accredited programs

  • Ability to apply knowledge of computing and mathematics appropriate to the discipline
    (covered by CS 162, 261, 275, 321, 362, 372, 381, 411, 461+462+463, 472, 480)
  • Ability to analyze a problem, and identify and define the computing requirements appropriate to its solution
    (covered by CS 261, 321, 361, 372, 381, 461+462+463, 480)
  • Ability to design, implement, and evaluate a computer-based system, process, component, or program to meet desired needs
    (covered by CS 261, 275, 362, 372, 381, 461+462+463)
  • Ability to function effectively on teams to accomplish a common goal
    (covered by CS 160, 361, 362, 461+462+463)
  • Understanding of professional, ethical, legal, security, and social issues and responsibilities
    (covered by CS 160, 391, 461+462+463)
  • Ability to communicate effectively with a range of audiences
    (covered by CS 361, 391, 461+462+463)
  • Ability to analyze the local and global impact of computing on individuals, organizations, and society
    (covered by CS 160, 391, 461+462+463)
