CCSCNE 2020 CANCELLED

Due to the closing of Ramapo College and the extraordinary circumstances that have arisen from the COVID-19 outbreak, the CCSCNE 2020 conference at Ramapo College will not take place.

Some of the details of the cancellation are to be worked out, but here is what we can say for now.

Everyone who has already registered for the conference will get a full refund. The mechanism for the refund is being worked out.

Everyone who was to present at CCSCNE 2020 will be given an opportunity to present at CCSCNE 2021. Nothing has been confirmed about the 2021 conference but it is my hope that it can be held at Ramapo College, the date to be announced.

I want to thank everyone who worked on the conference , who submitted a presentation, and who were going to attend the conference. The virus pandemic has affected many lives, so CCSCNE is a minor story in all of this. But it’s an event that amy of us look forward to every year. I look forward to seeing you at CCSCNE 2021.

Strategies for Maximizing the Value of Industry Adjuncts:  The Tech-in-Residence Corps Model

MP4 Video – Recorded April 24, 2020

Responding to NYC Mayor Bill de Blasio’s call to double the number of students graduating with a Bachelors degrees in computer science, in 2017, the Tech-in-Residence Corps (TIRC) program, first-of-its-kind multi stakeholder partnership between academia, government, and private industry, was established at the City University of New York.   The TIRC program quickly led to a rethinking of the potential roles that industry adjuncts can take on within CS Departments. Its driving hypothesis was that by employing a coordinated campaign to recruit top-quality industry practitioners to not only teach students advanced applied topics directly, but also provide feedback on curriculum development, this would enable campus departments to align better with industry practices.  In addition, industry adjuncts explored opportunities within their companies for student internships and full-time entry-level jobs, with the hope that this would increase students’ job competitiveness.  Ultimately, this created a sustained feedback loop that lead to other mutually beneficial arrangements between the tech industry and the university’s CS Departments. This panel discussion will represent the different perspectives of various stakeholders who have directly participated in the Tech-in-Residence Corps program: department faculty, an industry adjunct, the TIRC program manager, and a university administrator.

Panelists:

Susan P. Imberman  is The University Associate Dean for Technology Education at the City University of New York Central Office. Her charge is to foster the development of new and innovative technology programs in CUNY. Besides her current administrative role, Dr. Imberman holds academic positions at both The College of Staten Island, CUNY, where she chaired the computer science department, and The Graduate Center, CUNY.

Robert Domanski Ph.D., is the Director of Higher Education for the New York City government’s Tech Talent Pipeline industry partnership. As the former Senior Program Manager of the Tech-in-Residence Corps, he oversaw nearly two dozen advanced Computer Science courses at CUNY each semester taught by industry professionals from NYC’s tech ecosystem.

Shermane Austin is a Professor of Computer Science at CUNY Medgar Evers College. She is the Program Coordinator for Computer Science and facilitator for the Tech-in-Residence program in the department. She is also the Site Lead for the Google CSSI-Extension program at the college and is an Affiliate Director of the NASA NY State Space Consortium.

Ross Dakin – is a former industry adjunct who taught at Lehman College (CUNY) as an inaugural member of the TIRC program. He is currently employed at the New Jersey Office of Innovation. Previously he was the Senior Strategist of Global Technology & Operations at Bank of America Merrill Lynch. Ross was also a Presidential Innovation Fellow in the Obama White House.​
