Overview Computer Science Department Description HistoryFacultyStudents Degree Programs Directions Strengths / Innovations Challenges / Responses Other Issues Future Improvements Questions

Computer Science Department Description History First CS degree granted, as part of the Math Department Became CS Department 1999 – Accredited by CSAB Software Engineering program introduced 2001 – CS Degree accredited by ABET 2006 – SE Degree accredited by ABET

Faculty 5.5 Faculty Frank Ackerman, PhD CS Jeff Braun, MS CS Rick Joyce, MS CS Gray Mannix, MS ENGR Celia Schahczenski, PhD CS Michele Van Dyne, PhD EE Computer Science Department Description

Students Part Time and Full Time Undergraduate Enrollment by Primary Major (OCHE Report GA) Fall 2005Fall 2006Fall 2007Fall 2008Fall 2009 Computer ScienceFull Time Part Time16233 Headcount FTE Software EngineeringFull Time Part Time411 1 Headcount FTE FTE=Full Time Headcount + (1/3) Part Time Headcount Number of Graduates (IPEDS Completion Survey) TOTAL Computer Science Software Engineering

Computer Science Department Description Degree Programs B.S. Computer Science B.S. Software Engineering Options (both degrees): Business Applications Electronic Control Systems Engineering Applications Statistical Applications Technical Communications Health Care Informatics Game Development (pending BOR approval) No Graduate Program

Computer Science Department Directions Strengths / Innovations Low Student/Faculty Ratio, Small Class Size Only Accredited SE Degree in NW 100% Graduate Placement Last 10 Years Industry Advisory Board – Helps Drive Curriculum Web Development Web Science Graphics / Game Development Closed Loop Assessment/Evaluation Process Robotics for Recruiting/Retention

Computer Science Department Directions Challenges Low Enrollment Low Faculty Salaries Retention may become a problem Low Research Small Faculty – Time is an issue No Graduate Program Low Math Preparation for Incoming Students

Computer Science Department Directions Responses Low Enrollment R.E.A.L. Scholarship Student Retention through Feedback (Annual SGID) Low Faculty Salaries Not much hope in current economy Low Research Looking into SE Graduate Program Math Prep – Tech-Wide FESP

R.E.A.L. Scholarship Program Four Online Modules - $150 Scholarship for each one completed ($600 possible) What is Computer Science? Careers in Computer Science Programming with Alice Image Processing Summer Camp – Doubles the amount earned on modules Two Day Camp Hasn’t been held yet – low enrollment

Computer Science Department Directions Other Issues: Student Transfers Not too much of an issue Students tend to transfer in because of small size; Preparation usually adequate Distance Education Will be putting Data Mining online this summer No other classes online yet

Computer Science Department Directions Future Directions / Improvements Website Improvement ( Innovative Applications Robotics Telephony / Hand-Held Devices Increase Research Develop Graduate Program Increase Visibility
