Initiative Title | Re-design Cyber Security Degree Program and Course CIT 100 Computer Literacy |
Submitted in Previous Year(s) | No |
Critical Information, Notes, Justification, Rationale | This program was re-evaluated and major changes recommended back in 2017. Administration blocked these changes. Program has grown stale and unaligned since then.
In AY 23/24 the Department was forced to re-design this program to meet new Ged Ed requirements. While some effort was made to re-align the program with industry needs, most of the effort involved just satisfying Gen Ed changes. |
Consequences of this initiative not being funded | Continued decrease in value and relevancy of this degree. |
Department Goals | Review and refine our offerings and programs to create a larger student pool and broaden the technology skills of our graduates., Continue to provide a high-quality educational experience for our students while improving content and delivery. |
