New Trends Global development of computer software

through international cooperation and outsourcing

Increased emphasis on building both SW and HW from components and services developed globally

Critical need for making systems easy to use, on time and budget, and with adequate performance

These trends are permanent – we either leverage them or become victims of it

Our Strategy Improve our graduate programs and keep

strong undergraduate programs Cover new technologies and provide

students with a such knowledge, so they can get jobs

Increase research and external funding – involve students in research and industrial projects

Attract top quality faculty and students

New Academic Programs

New Program in Port St. Lucie and Davie BS in Information Engineering Technology

(BIET), begins in Fall 2005 Weekend MS Program in CS with Specialization in

Web and Internet Technology First generation will graduate in March 2005

Joint MS Program with College of Business in Computer Information Systems First draft completed

International Programs Nirma University (India) and a few other

potential joint programs
