Abstract:
It is a fact that employability of the graduates and post-graduates in engineering disciplines does not explicitly require any specific mathematical knowledge. It is unfortunate but true that even though Mathematics is the foundation of computer science it is now being considered as a totally separate subject. The inclusion of topics from Mathematics in the Computing Curricula all over the world has often times been very tough to justify. Mathematical foundations any beyond the first year in a typical Undergraduate Engineering programme are rarely found in the computing curricula today. The author is associated with working on teaching computer science to K-12 schools. Integrating Computer Science and Mathematics has a huge potential but so are the risks. The focus is the IEEE Software Engineering Body of Knowledge [SWEBOK].
