wow - how are the uni's getting the space / resources to do that? I have some knowledge of the investment required in labs and lecture theatres, and I know of several CS programs in the UK capped by the constraints that these impose. Basically if you can't get the class into a "standard" lecture theatre at your institution you are capped. Attrition is ~5 and 15% (sometimes higher - but the teaching quality stuff kicks in) per year so by the time you get to a graduation class it's rare that >100 graduate - more like 60.
- AlexCoventry 8y ago> investment required in labs and lecture theatres Do you really need CS labs, anymore? A personal low-end laptop ought to be enough for most CS studies.
- sgt101 8y agoGood question - I think that hands on hardware should be at least one bit of a proper CS degree, for things like massive parallelism and FPGA's perhaps you could use cloud resources - does this cost in?
