A landscape report should provide an aerial view of the current state of computer science education in Wisconsin. Creating this type of report can help identify what the state is doing well, and what issues or policies may need to be addressed. Some of the key questions we’re trying to answer include what CS course offerings are available for students to enroll in, what are the demographics of students enrolling in these courses, and are we producing enough teachers to maintain and expand CS course offerings. We’re also interested in what major businesses and industries are expecting from new graduates and the current demand for graduates with a background in CS.

Despite the steady global shift toward automation and other applications of computing, it was only very recently that the push for computer science education began to gain traction. As it stands, Wisconsin has made considerable strides to place itself as a national leader. However, without a deliberate strategy in place, we could soon be left behind. This landscape report is meant to help identify areas in which Wisconsin has been successful in supporting the growth of computer science education, as well as areas that need improvement. With our results we hope to inform future computer science education reform at the state-level.
