Now for the laboratory experience! The view from four different undergraduate computer science curricula

There is much discussion about the undergraduate computer science curriculum. With the rapid changes in computer science, the need to stay current is mandatory while the ability to develop and implement a contemporary undergraduate curriculum is extremely time-consuming and costly. Four schools have each developed a different model to undergraduate computer science education. Each school believes the work done has been successfully implemented at the respective institutions. They also believe that these works can be successfully adapted by others. An overview is given of the laboratory models and topics developed for a laboratory activity.
