“Computer Science Curricula 2023” provides advice on the skills necessary for careers in computer science today

LOS ALAMITOS, Calif., June 5, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Today, the IEEE Computer Society (CS), along with industry partners ACM, the Association for Computing Machinery, and the Association for the Advancement of Artificial Intelligence (AAAI), released the latest iteration of its guidance for undergraduates on careers in computer science. “Computer Science Curricula 2023” (CS2023) outlines the knowledge and competencies students should attain for degrees in computer science and related disciplines at the undergraduate level.

The collaboration with IEEE CS, ACM, and AAAI on the CS2023 curriculum highlights its broad and significant impact.

“In late 2022, our Future of the Workforce Report revealed some of the top technological advancements transforming and enabling the workforce of tomorrow,” said Jyotika Athavale, 2024 IEEE CS President. “We found that innovations like artificial intelligence and quantum computing are shifting the knowledge needs of universities, research centers, corporations, and governments. By updating CS2023, we are helping to address those changes by offering counsel to undergraduates on the topics they need to explore for continued opportunities in computer science and engineering.”

Since the 1960s, IEEE CS, along with leading professional and scientific computing societies, has worked to tailor curriculum recommendations to the rapidly changing computing landscape. As the computing field continues to evolve, and new computing-related disciplines emerge, existing curriculum reports are updated. For instance, among other additions, CS2023 now includes:

A substantial section on artificial intelligence (AI) and the role computer scientists and engineers will play in its continued evolution. CS2023 also introduces a chapter on ways Generative AI could propel further innovation in computer science education.An emphasis on Society, Ethics, and the Profession (SEP) to expand awareness of the field’s requirements beyond technical talent. The SEP knowledge area is now an integral part of the curriculum.An increased emphasis on mathematics to meet the growing demands of today’s landscape.

“Computer science continues to evolve at a rapid rate across all knowledge areas,” Rajendra K. Raj, Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT), Rochester, NY, U.S.A., CS2023 Steering Committee Co-Chair said. “Our work on these guidelines will help to ensure that educators and students recognize the paths available to them and the steps to take to investigate their options.”

A global Steering Committee of 17 computing professionals from academia and industry guided the development of CS2023. A global survey was conducted in 2021 to gather input from academic and industry respondents, which helped confirm specific knowledge areas and core disciplines within computer science, such as security, data management, and foundations of programming languages. Each Steering Committee member then led the development of the curricular guidelines for a specific knowledge area. The final version of CS2023 includes widespread community feedback to ensure comprehensive, global input.

“This project was a labor of love for all involved. We extend our greatest thanks to the worldwide community for helping to shape the future of computer science by providing this guidance for undergraduate education worldwide,” concluded Raj.

Uniform curricula guidelines for computer science disciplines establish global requirements for the profession, which, in turn, help to ensure that students develop the knowledge and skills necessary to pursue a career in computer science and engineering disciplines. Additionally, by supporting consistency in the field across the world, curricular guidelines enable efficient global collaboration.

April 24, 2026

AI is reshaping how value is created across the enterprise, but many organizations are still operating with models built for a pre-AI world. As a result, technology adoption alone is not translating into sustained impact. At the highly anticipated IT conference Info-Tech LIVE 2026 in Las Vegas, June 9–11 at the Bellagio, Info-Tech Research Group will feature keynote insights from Ian Beacraft, CEO and Chief Futurist at Signal and Cipher. Beacraft will share with thousands of CIOs, industry experts, and analysts in attendance how IT leaders can redesign work to better align with the demands of AI-driven change.

At Info-Tech LIVE 2026 in Las Vegas, Attendees Will Explore:

Why AI initiatives often fail to deliver value when applied to outdated ways of workingHow operating models, workflows, and decision-making must change to support AI at scaleWhere AI is being misapplied and limiting its impactWhat it takes to design organizations that can adapt alongside AI

LAS VEGAS, April 24, 2026 /PRNewswire/ – Info-Tech Research Group is set to bring together thousands of CIOs, CTOs, CISOs, and IT leaders at its upcoming flagship annual IT conference, Info-Tech LIVE 2026 in Las Vegas. Taking place June 9–11 at the Bellagio, the 2026 program will guide attendees on how they can adapt their design and execution models to fully realize value from AI. As part of the agenda, the global research and advisory firm has announced that Ian Beacraft, CEO and Chief Futurist at Signal and Cipher, will deliver a mainstage keynote on how leaders can redesign workflows, team structures, and value creation models to better align with the demands of AI-driven change.

Known for making emerging technologies understandable and actionable, Beacraft has advised global enterprises, including Nike, Google, and Microsoft, on how to turn AI from a technical capability into a driver of performance, reimagine how work is designed, and prepare teams for the future of work.

As AI capabilities continue to expand, Info-Tech has been highlighting in its recent research and reports that expectations around how work is executed and how value is delivered are shifting just as quickly. Existing processes, team structures, and decision models were not designed for continuous, technology-driven change, creating friction as leaders attempt to scale AI effectively.

“Many organizations are trying to apply AI within working models where it isn’t well suited,” says Info-Tech Research Group’s Chief Research Officer, Gord Harrison. “Through Ian Beacraft’s keynote and the broader agenda at Info-Tech LIVE 2026 in Las Vegas, leaders will better understand how rethinking decision-making and execution can help them truly get value from AI.”

By bringing together research, external perspectives, and peer dialogue, Info-Tech LIVE 2026 in Las Vegas will help IT leaders understand what it takes to apply AI more effectively across the enterprise. Attendees will leave with a stronger sense of how to support meaningful change in the way work is led, managed, and delivered.
