Abstract

This paper presents results of a survey of departments offering accredited Computer Science degree programs. It discusses demographic information related to curricula, faculty, and students for all such programs, and identifies various trends based on this data. These results are of interest and use to all accredited and non-accredited departments alike, since it provides the information necessary to monitor and compare individual degree programs to other programs in the nation in terms of faculty composition, student enrollment and graduation rates, faculty salaries, and curriculum issues.
