Aligning Computer Engineering Curricula to Meet Digital Economy Requirements: Interdisciplinary Aspect
摘要
The rapid evolution of the digital economy is accompanied by fundamental changes in the labour market, specifically concerning the increasing demands for new skills and knowledge. This necessitates updating educational standards, curricula, and content across various disciplines. In this context, the adoption of an interdisciplinary approach to curriculum development in computer engineering and digital transformation is well justified. This approach aligns with both international and European educational standards and competency frameworks. To implement this approach effectively, a Neo4j-based graph model for a digital transformation educational program has been developed, enabling connections between curriculum components. Through the application of Cypher, a cumulative effect has been demonstrated from the concurrent study of disciplines from two critical educational fields: Business, Administration, and Law; and Information and Communication Technologies. The paper details the analytical tasks that can be executed using this graph database and outlines potential directions for its further enhancement.
