Model curricula for baccalaureate computer science (CS) have been published regularly from 1968 through 2013. In early 2021, the ACM, IEEE-Computer Society, and the Association for the Advancement of Artificial Intelligence (AAAI) constituted a task force to revise these curricula, which have now been released as Computer Science 2023 Curricula (CS2023). The CS2023 curricular guidelines inform educators and administrators on the what, why, and how to cover undergraduate CS over the next decade. Like past guidelines, CS2023 provides curricular content - a knowledge model largely backward compatible with CS2013, supplemented by a competency framework influenced by Computing Curricula 2020 (CC2020) - and complementary curricular practices, which include articles by international experts on program design and delivery. Ongoing drafts of CS2023 were disseminated via the CS2023 website, along with regular publications or presentations at various computing education venues.
