A comment on How I Would Design a Programming Degree.
Intro programming sequence: - Critical Thinking - Logic - Imperative Programming - Object-oriented Programming
Databases: - Relational Data - Object-relational Mapping
Technical communication & ethics: - Professional Communication - Professional Conduct
Software engineering sequence: - Human-readable Data (also in databases) - Refactoring - Object-oriented Design Patterns - Requirements and Specifications - Organizing
Software testing (elective): - Unit Testing
Senior design projects: - Develop Software
Misc:
- Declarative Programming --> We learn regex in an intro to Linux course, XML in software engineering, etc.
- Tools of the Trade --> Picked up on your own, from profs, TAs, teammates, etc.
Which leaves only the following courses unaccounted for:
- Optimizing --> General optimization strategies aren't really taught at my university without looking for specific elective courses.
- User Interface Design --> Sadly, CS does not seem to concern itself much with the front-end of software; I wish this were not the case.
