“…Figure 3a & 3b demonstrate some of the common considerations taken into account during the evaluation process. These include the efficiency of training and teaching methods utilized by the organization in improving the skills and knowledge of its scholars [16]. It is particularly necessary that training and teaching should make the students ready for appropriate realworld application of their knowledge.…”

The quality of the institution's program is to be identified based on predefined criteria or standards. This will assist the institution in improving its programs, reputation, and environment, facility by benchmarking with other international and regional schools [1-3]. Evaluating the program consequences is not an easy task. It is a tedious and continuous process. In particular, it needs integrating quality factors concerning the details of the program. Postsecondary programs are accredited through the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology in computing, engineering, applied science, and engineering technology. The Council for Higher Education Accreditation (CHEA) has identified ABET since 1997.

University undergraduate pro- grams in computing disciplines are updated regularly to adapt to advancements in the field and emerging, fast-growing industry demand. This paper reports the current status of a selected set of undergraduate programs in com- puting fields in Saudi Arabia and compares them to other programs from international universi- ties in light of the 2020 Computing Curricula Report (CCR). This comparative study aims to enlighten future efforts for designing cur- ricula and updating undergraduate computing programs in Saudi Arabia. A sample of 26 Saudi universities (15 public and 11 private) and 15 international universities offering 161 programs is selected. The comparison criteria include program discipline, duration, number of units, accreditation, required training, and others. We find significant differences between programs offered by Saudi public and private universities compared to international university programs. For example, programs offered by Saudi universities, especially the public, require more units compared to international programs (median of 143 units vs. 120 units). Our findings would guide future undergraduate computing program developments in Saudi Arabia.
