Abstract

“Curriculum '68”, the recommendations of the ACM Curriculum Committee on Computer Science (C3S), established computer science as an academic field of study and specified to a great extent its content. The field has evolved over the ten years since the publication of the report; however, it remains an important reference point, still being used to describe courses and programs.

The ten year period following the publication of “Curriculum '68” saw C3S carefully monitoring the changes and developments in computer science education at the undergraduate level. This work resulted in the preparation of a new set of recommendations, “Curriculum '78”, which are to appear in the February 1979 Communications of the ACM.
