Abstract

To properly understand the role of the microcomputer in computer science requires a certain amount of electrical engineering knowledge concerning electronic technology. In a computer science program it is often found that students have no background in electrical engineering. Thus the proper presentation of the microcomputer in such a program demands that the students be provided with sufficient background education to fully understand the impact of the microcomputer. This paper deals with the way in which the microcomputer is presented in the computer science curriculum at Bowling Green State University. The curriculum is pure computer science in the sense that the students have no electrical engineering exposure. Thus, the students must be given sufficient background to fully appreciate the role of the microcomputer. In conclusion, a short summary of future microcomputer education and laboratory facility goals is made.
