It’s funny he says a lot of modern CS education is bad
I did Computer Engineering rather than CS for undergrad and we covered like 80% of the topics in that list
Had multiple courses in Verilog/OS and worked a lot with microcontrollers/FPGAs. Building a CPU in verilog then writing an assembler/compiler was definitely the highlight.
Was a hard program but I felt like I had a really good understanding of the full stack coming out of it.
Maybe he just isn’t familiar with CE?
- throwaway17_17 3y agoWhere I’m did you do undergrad. My son is not having much success finding a college to shoot for in terms of having a goal. I think a curriculum like you describe would at least show him some options that exist.
- jholman 3y agoSeems to me that CE covers sections 1, 2, 3, 7, and a bit of 5, and CS covers 4, 5, and 6. A traditional CS education should teach 3, even though doing 3 is absolutely not the job of CS grads.
