The results will be used to help improve curricula, and determine training needs for employees. For each of a list of topics taught in computer science and engineering programs, I ask: * How much did you learn about this topic in your education? * How much do you know now? (after having learned more or forgotten some) * How useful has it been in your career? * How useful would it be to learn more? I posted this request before once, but unfortunately many people were not able to access the web server due to a disk crash. Thanks for those who already participated. I would like to have people from a wide variety of companies complete this survey (several people per company, preferably from different parts of the company). I am interested in people who are developing or maintaining software, managing these activities or performing closely related activities. Normally people who complete this survey will have had a university or college education in computer science or engineering, but I am also interested in people who are self-taught or who have entered the field with different educational backgrounds. I am also interested in ensuring that I include people with varying amounts of experience. The results will be published, although individual data will of course be kept confidential. Thank-you for your assistance. -- Timothy C.
