3. 2 January 2009 COURSE CHANGES WITH EXPLANATIONS New Courses 6500 Programming/Data Structures – new foundation course 6501 Architecture/Networking – new foundation course 6502 Operating Systems – new foundation course 83X1 SW Project Mgmt – elective - better course to offer versus 8532 and 8628 – doesn’t require prereq – per Hisham 83X2 Simulation – elective - no prereq – makes use of faculty expertise – can use knowledge across multiple domains 83X3 Computer & Network Security – required - topics in demand – very marketable – 8640 prereq required 83X4 Data Mining – elective - makes use of faculty expertise – marketable – 8630 prereq required Existing Courses 8411 Embedded Systems – no change – no prereq – required course – satisfies smorgasbord approach 8430 OO Software Design – no change – no prereq – required course - satisfies smorgasbord approach 8431 Software Engineering – no change – no prereq – required course - satisfies smorgasbord approach 8630 Database Administration – change from required to elective – no prereq – could have had in undergrad 8640 TCP/IP & Wireless Networking – change from elective to required – change prereq from 8421 to new 6501 -satisfies smorgasbord approach 8650 Intro to AI and Robotics – change from required to elective – change prereq from 8411/8512 to 8411 only (with stronger 6000-levels) 8670 Bio-Informatics – change from elective to required – no prereq - satisfies smorgasbord approac 8680 Digital Game Design – change from elective to required – no prereq - satisfies smorgasbord approach 8990 Special Topics – continues to provide us flexibility in offering new courses Removed Courses 6000 Concepts in Computing – no need anymore 6002 Computer Networking – no need anymore 6003 Elementary Data Structures – no need anymore 6940 Applied Project Planning – no need anymore 8512 Adv Embedded Systems – in supporting smorgasbord approach, already offer course in Embedded Systems 8421 Computing Systems – moved foundation courses out of curriculum -6000-level course will cover topics 8422 Adv Computing Systems - moved foundation courses out of curriculum -6000-level course will cover topics 8532 Adv Software Engineering – new 83X1 replaces this course 8628 Software Architecture – new 83X1 replaces this course 8940 Applied Project Planning – no need anymore 8945 Project Presentation – no need anymore 8625 High-Perf Computing – requires 2 levels of prereqs – requires 6 courses prior (per catalog) 8635 Distributed Object Tech – requires 2 levels of prereqs – requires 4 courses prior (per catalog) 8570 BioMed Devices – never offered – Ying not interested in offering – not sure of marketability either

4. 3 January 2009 ACTION ITEMS – TIGHT TIME LINE New Courses 6500 Programming/Data Structures – need syllabus from Ying 6501 Architecture/Networking – Victor provide syllabus 6502 Operating Systems – need syllabus from Jose 83X1 SW Project Mgmt – need syllabus from Hisham 83X2 Simulation – need syllabus from Jose 83X3 Computer & Network Security – Victor provide syllabus 83X4 Data Mining – need syllabus from Ying Submit paperwork to CCC and DCC by Feb 9th DCC 2 nd Reading by Feb 12th – make revisions and resubmit to CCC Submit paperwork to GPCC by March 4th College curriculum committee 1 st reading by Feb 23rd – try to waive 2 nd reading GPCC 1 st Reading by March 4 th – most likely will not waive 2 nd reading Submit catalog changes by March 15th GPCC 2 nd Reading by March 18th Need syllabus by next week Finish Bursar/Fee paper work by next week DCC 1 st Reading Today (Jan 29 th ) Complete paperwork by Feb 9th
