A group of Computer Science courses have been developed at Brigham Young University to serve students in a variety of disciplines. A little _historical background and a description of the courses as they are now offered is documented in this paper with th e hope that it may help others in the development of their service courses.
In 1970, a surveyl of some fifty technical laboratories revealed that they were in need of professional scientists and engineers with a much higher level of programming proficiency than they had been getting from the universities. They preferred the professional scientist with a proficiency in computer techniques over the professional computer programmer in the applications areas. Further discussions with several of th e academic departments in this and other universities and with prospective employers confirmed this educational need.
