Number of New Students This Year (1 Viewer)

[sasalove]

According to NSS, there are currently 363 students enrolled in the new Computing 1 and there is no higher version of the course this year. So, I assume this year, we have about 360 new students studying Comp Sci and Comp/Soft/Elec/Tele Eng in total.

Looking back in the glory days, there would have been more than 500 students studying Computing 1A... What a downturn...

200s sounds about right.

CSE intake is a fraction of what it used to be during the IT boom years.

Numbers peaked in 2000/2001 with close to 700 first year students. The less the better, only makes it easier for us to find work when we graduate

In Session 2, I am teaching Computing 1 A (handbook entry). This was once a huge course -- one year, I taught over 600 students in this course. Dropping student numbers after the dot-com crash has made it more manageable.

And COMM students.

COMM (Commerce) doesn't come under the count for Computing. Whoever takes a computing course is a student. (First year in particular, ENGG1000/COMP1911)

E.g. INFS Courses are under the FCE school, not the CSE school.

When I read the page it says 363/390 students, IT boom over the last 2 weeks perhaps? Or did I read it wrong?
