This paper will layout the University of Cincinnati's efforts in creating the core curriculum for an information technology degree program to be started in the autumn quarter of 2004. By core, we are referring to coursework required by all information technology majors no matter their chosen area of specialization: networking, software development or web technologies. The work done creating this information technology groundwork for students is based on ACM SIGITE's initial implementation of IT curriculum guidelines. Input for the IT core was also obtained from faculty, students, and industry partners. Processes by which specific course offerings were chosen will be detailed: objectives of the core and courses, desired outcomes for students, content, and associated hands-on activities. In all, the paper will present a means by which the core curriculum can be successfully implemented in information technology programs at other universities that are interested in such an endeavor. |
