1 Department of Systems & Computer 1/11 Program Changes Department of Systems and Computer, Carleton University, Canada

2 Why Are We Here? Substantial changes to the program have been approved by the University Senate. These changes affect the courses you are to take for your degree. Department of Systems & Computer 2/11

3 Why is the Program Changing? The computer hardware component of your program has not been updated for many years. The existing program has limited coverage of network and software security, an area that is of growing importance to software engineering. The current list of approved engineering electives is very limited. Department of Systems & Computer 3/11

4 Computer Hardware The following courses are being removed from the program: 2001 Computer Systems Foundations 2003 Introductory Real-Time Systems 4507 Computer Systems Architecture ELEC 2607 Digital Switching Circuits They are being replaced by three new courses: 2310 Introduction to Digital Systems 2320 Introduction to Computer Organization and Architecture 3310 Introduction to Real-Time Systems Department of Systems & Computer 4/11

5 Network & Security New course: 4810 Introduction to Network and Security With society s ever-increasing reliance on computing and telecommunication comes the need to ensure that our information technology is protected against unwanted intrusion and disruption. This course will give engineering students exposure to some of the key issues involving network and software security. Department of Systems & Computer 5/11

6 Electives The old list of permitted electives is short. Students in third year have trouble finding an elective that they have the prerequisites for and fit their timetable. Two additional courses are now acceptable electives: ECOR 2606 Numerical Methods 3501 Communication Theory Department of Systems & Computer 6/11

7 What Do You Need To Do? You need to decide whether you want to change to the new program or remain in the old program. All students need to inform the department of their choice, either by signing the appropriate signup sheet or by sending an to Department of Systems & Computer 7/11

8 Reasons to Change to the New Program Exposure to modern technologies Greater flexibility in course selection Department of Systems & Computer 8/11

9 Reasons to Remain in the Old Program You ve already completed ELEC 2607, 2001 and 2003 These courses will not count towards your degree if you change programs You re more interested in the history of computer architecture, not the future. If you started in Fall 2015 or earlier, you may be able to graduate earlier if you remain on the old program. Seek advice! Department of Systems & Computer 9/11

10 Warning If you choose to remain on the old program you should be aware that 2001 and 2003 are being phased out 2001 Last offered in Fall Last offered in Winter 2018 If you don t complete 2003 in Winter 2018, you will have to change to the new program, and your graduation will be delayed.
