The Development of International Collaborative Undergraduate Degree Programs

Abstract

In this paper, we describe the process by which Sam Houston State University, United States, (SHSU) and Firat University (FU), Turkey developed collaborative undergraduate degree programs in Software Engineering and Digital Forensics Engineering. The paper explores the administrative, curricular, accreditation, and financial issues that needed to be addressed in order to bring the agreement to a successful conclusion. Following an iTiCSE workshop in Ankara, Turkey (Cooper et al., 2010), the department chair of Computer Science at Sam Houston State University was invited to present a paper “Towards Standards in Digital Forensics Education” to the Faculty of Technology at Firat University. As a result, informal conversations took place regarding potential research, exchange and curricular collaborations between the two universities.
