A critical comptuer science curriculum within the liberal arts
Code as a Liberal Art is a new curricular initiative and University Minor in Eugene Lang College of Liberal Arts at The New School that teaches a critical computer science curriculum in the context of a liberal arts education. Students in Code as a Liberal Art both critically examine, and learn how to craft, the code that drives computational machinery, focusing on its relevance to the domains of the liberal arts: the humanities, the arts, and the social and physical sciences. Through discipline-specific projects, students learn to apply these skills to further their own critical and creative practices. They also get opportunities to consider questions of access, equity and social justice in relation to technological systems.
