Software Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science: Sibling Disciplines with Diverse Cultures

Abstract

Software Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science Sibling Disciplines with Diverse CulturesEvery program of study has an institutional context and it has roots in an intellectual culture thatinforms its character. Its institutional context influences its content, its relationships with otherprograms, and the character of the graduates, among other things. Its intellectual heritageinfluences the shape of its content, the focus of its faculty, and the degrees of freedom students inthe program have. A recent study of the curricula of the 19 software engineering program thatwere accredited as of October 2009 indicated that more than half of these programs were housedin the same department as an accredited computer science program. It also found that there is awide degree of variation in the degree of content overlap between the software engineeringcurriculum and the computer science curriculum. At some institutions, there was as little as onecourse overlap between the two programs while at others there was a very large component thatwas shared. At some institutions, computer science and software engineering shared treatmentof introductory material while others offered even introductory material in the two programs indifferent course sequences. This evidence suggests that there may be well be interestingdimensions of commonality and difference among programs in a broader range of areas that weretreated by the Computing Curricula 2005 documents.This paper extends the previous study to the consideration of interrelationships among thecurricula of computing programs at a subset of institutions with accredited software engineeringprograms in October 2010. The subset treated includes only those institutions with accreditedsoftware engineering programs at which there are also programs in computer science andcomputer engineering and does not address other computing disciplines such as informationtechnology, information systems, or management information systems. There are 14 suchinstitutions. Of these ...
