摘要：

The Bachelor's program in Information Technology (B.Sc. IT) at the King Saud University (KSU) conducted a significant upgrade of its curriculum in 2018, aiming to better prepare its graduates for the new trends in the fast-evolving IT industry. The upgraded curriculum includes the introduction of new specialized tracks, namely Data Science, Cyber Security, and Network and Internet of Things (IoT). In this paper, we report our experience of designing the new curriculum over the past couple of years. We first provide a historical overview of the IT degree at KSU. We then describe the program design and its rationale. We then conclude with an assessment of the curriculum outcomes to meet ACM/ABET requirements.
