| = Introduction = This is a listing of schools that are using Python in their curriculum. I would like to confirm each of the schools below by linking to a specific web page with a course listing and/or the professor(s) teaching classes that involve the use of Python. Each listing should be expanded with a description of how Python is being used. -- KevinAltis Need to copy info from: * http://www.ibiblio.org/obp/pyBiblio/schools.php = High Schools = * Yorktown High School, in Arlington Virginia ([http://www.elkner.net/ Jeff Elkner]) = Colleges and Universities = == Australia == * University of New South Wales * Computer science taught/teaches course(s) with Python (as of about 2001) == Canada == * University of Waterloo * One of the more prestigious engineering/comp-sci schools in Canada is using it officially in [http://www.student.cs.uwaterloo.ca/~cs488/ CS488 (Intro to 3D graphics)], and I'm told there's lots of use among faculty, staff and students. I don't think they actually teach much Python, they're focused on teaching OpenGL/graphics programming, but they do wind up using it as the framework into which the students slot their code. == United Kingdom == * University of Oxford * Department of Physics (need to confirm) * http://www-teaching.physics.ox.ac.uk/computing/Programming/Python/Oxford/html/handbook_Python.html == United States == === California === * University of California, Irvine * http://www.eng.uci.edu/catalogue/?page=engr_9 * http://wingide.com/pipermail/marketing-python/2003-March/004157.html * University of California Santa Cruz Extension in Sunnyvale CA === Colorado === * University of Northern Colorado === Connecticut === * Wesleyan University === Florida === * University of Florida === Georgia === * Georgia Tech * [http://coweb.cc.gatech.edu/cs1315 Introduction to Media Computation] === Idaho === * Lewis & Clark State College, Idaho === Iowa === * University of Iowa * Wartburg College (Zelle's school), Iowa === Kentucky === * Morehead State, Kentucky === Massachusetts === * Hampshire College === Michigan === * Kalamazoo College === Minnesota === * Minnesota State at Bemidji === Mississippi === * Mississippi College === Missouri === * Southeast Missouri State === Ohio === * Capital University * Python is used in the traditional CS1 course using John Zelle's book * Python and C++ are used in CS2 * lab assignments in many courses may be written in Python or C++ * contact person: David Reed (dreed (at) capital.edu) * Kent State === Oregon === * Mt Hood Community College === Pennsylvania === * Bryn Mawr College |
