Comprehensive Report  on the 1999 Survey of Departments 
Offering CSAC/CSAB-Accredited Degree Programs

This report presents the results of the fifth year of an 
annual survey of departments offering degree programs accredited 
by the Computer Science Accreditation Commission of the Computing 
Sciences Accreditation Board. The goal of this survey is to gather 
demographic information related to curricula, faculty, and students 
for all such programs, and to identify various trends based on this 
data.  The survey discussed herein covers a wide range of departments 
in that it is distributed to all CSAC/CSAB-accredited departments, 
which includes departments that offer only undergraduate degrees, 
as well as departments that offer M.S. and Ph.D. degrees.   The data 
presented herein summarize the various results from the survey 
collected in the winter of 1999.  The data are grouped according to 
their focus, namely academic-unit-, curriculum-, student-, and 
faculty-related information.   These results are of interest and 
use to many departments including those offering accredited and 
non-accredited degree programs, since it will allow them to monitor 
and compare their individual programs to others  in the nation in 
terms of faculty composition, student enrollment and graduation rates, 
faculty salaries, and curriculum issues.
