Admission of Students 115 Introduction The Criteria for Accrediting Computer Science Programs are divided into seven major Categories, each Criterion containing a statement of Intent and Standards. An intent statement provides the underlying principles associated with a Criterion. In order for a program to be accredited, it must meet the intent statement of every Criterion. Standards provide descriptions of how a program can minimally meet the statements of intent. The word “must” is used within each standard to convey the expectation that the condition of the standard will be satisfied in all cases. For a program to meet the intent of a Criterion, it must either satisfy all the standards associated with that Criterion or demonstrate an alternate approach to achieving the intent of the Criterion. For each of the following seven sections, corresponding to each of the seven Categories of the Criteria, answer all of the questions associated with the standards. If one or more standards are not satisfied, it is incumbent upon the institution to demonstrate and document clearly and unequivocally how the intent is met in some alternate fashion. If you are having more than one program evaluated, particularly if the programs are on separate campuses, the answers to these questions may vary from one program to another. If this is the case, please use separate copies of each section for each program, and clearly delineate which program is being described. I. Objectives and Assessments Intent: The program has documented, measurable objectives, including expected outcomes for graduates. The program regularly assesses its progress against its objectives and used the results of the assessments to identify program improvements and to modify the program’s objectives. Standard I-1. The program must have documented, measurable objectives.Standard I-2. The program’s objectives must include expected outcomes for graduating students.A. Objectives Please attach items that support or precede the measurable objectives, e.g.,
BS (Computer Science) program Objectives Department of Information and Computer Science (ICS) offers BS (Computer Science) program. The ICS department is one of the three departments in the College of Computer Sciences and Engineering (CCSE). CCSE is one of the five colleges in the King Fahd University of Petroleum and Minerals (KFUPM). Mission, vision, and values of the King Fahd University of Petroleum and Minerals are reproduced from the Strategic Plan of the university for 2006 to 2011. The plan can be accessed from the URL
Then the CCSE mission, and its line of business are described. Details of the strategic plan for the College of Computer Sciences and Engineering is available at http://www.ccse.kfupm.edu.sa/ccse-web/pages/page.php?page=Strategic_Plan Finally, the ICS department mission, and the Computer Science program mission are listed. The same are documented in the KFUPM Undergraduate Bulletin 2006 – 2009. The online version of the bulletin is available at http://www.kfupm.edu.sa/kfupm/admissions/undergrad_bulletin.pdf The mission and vision statements of the university, the college, and the department are followed by a discussion to highlight their alignment. Finally, it is described how the program objectives fit into and align with the missions of the department, the college, and the university.
