I find this syllabus overly specific. I appreciate the pillar of "Application" but it is too applied. Any one of a hundred things can invalidate this curriculum. The industry could switch from Rails to some non-MVC model. Facebook and Twitter could turn out to be fads and Internet marketing moves onto another platform. Lean Startup could be replaced with some other methodology and all the Mixergy wisdom is rendered useless. An education should teach you something more fundamental than the flavor of the month in the fields that you care about.
