 The goal of the τεχνη project is a zero-based re-design of the B.A. degree program in computer science. The overriding directive of the new design is the direct incorporation of DPA and computer graphics research results into all required computing courses in the curriculum. Instruction in these (new) courses will be strictly oriented toward large-scale problem-solving, where the large-scale problems are those that have arisen naturally in the research investigations of the computer graphics faculty.1
