Program Advisory Committee
Loyola University Chicago’s Computer Science Program Advisory Committee (PAC) consists of industry leaders and subject matter experts who help the department ensure that real-world concerns are incorporated into its programs, and makes certain that the department creates curricula that continue to meet the changing needs of the industry.
Goals of the Program Advisory Committee
The PAC provides ongoing evaluation of and consultation on Loyola’s Computer Science and Information Technology curriculum to keep it current with the knowledge, skills, attitudes, and values identified by industry representatives as being necessary for students to learn and use to work effectively in their chosen fields.

- Advice on Computer Science and Information Technology curriculum
- Articulate long-term goals and objectives for the program
