在整个北美，大学和学院都面临着本科计算机科学(CS)课程和项目的大幅增加。目前的入学人数激增已经超过了之前的CS热潮，人们普遍认为，目前的入学人数增长与20世纪80年代中期和90年代末有很大不同。例如，自20世纪90年代末以来，美国劳工局的数据显示，需要计算机技能的工作岗位数量呈上升趋势[1]，说明我们的社会对计算机的依赖程度越来越高。我们还知道，越来越多的学科正变得越来越依赖大量数据，有效地处理这些数据取决于拥有良好的计算技能。这使得其他专业的学生对各级计算机科学课程更感兴趣。
Across North America, universities and colleges are facing a significant increase in enrollment in both undergraduate computer science (CS) courses and programs. The current enrollment surge has exceeded previous CS booms, and there is a general sense that the current growth in enrollment is substantially different from that of the mid-1980s and late 1990s. For example, since the late 1990s, the U.S. Bureau of Labor data shows that the number of jobs where computing skills are needed is on an upward slope [1], illustrating the increased reliance our society has on computing. We also know that more disciplines are becoming increasingly reliant on large amounts of data, and that handling this data effectively depends on having good computational skills. This makes computer science courses at all levels of greater interest to students from other majors.
