Education: curriculum; public high schools to offer a computer science course; require. Amends 1976 PA 451 (MCL 380.1 - 380.1852) by adding sec. 1166c.

This law requires every public high school in Michigan to offer at least one computer science course starting in the 2027-2028 school year. The courses must meet state educational standards and be listed on the school's catalog, with a preference for in-person instruction unless a school operates entirely virtually. The legislation defines computer science as a field focused on creating new technologies rather than just using them, ensuring the curriculum covers principles, design, and societal impact.
