COMPUTER APPLICATIONS
COMPSCI 162
A thorough introduction to commonly used computer applications, covering word processing, spreadsheets, data storage and retrieval, and presentation software. Students will learn the vocabulary of computing, the concepts of computing and problem solving, and how computer applications can be applied to a wide range of problems.
INTRODUCTION TO JAVA
COMPSCI 172
This course teaches the essentials of object-oriented programming in Java. Students will learn to formulate algorithms, solve problems, and implement those solutions with a Java program that employs objects and classes. Students will be introduced to object-oriented design, class construction, methods and message passing, arrays, string processing, and file processing.
DISCRETE STRUCTURES
COMPSCI 215
The course offers a formal approach to the mathematics of Computer Science, including set theory, methods of proof, propositional logic, discrete probability, sequences, recurrence relations, introduction to graphs, and algorithmic analysis.
INTERMEDIATE JAVA
COMPSCI 220
This course teaches more advanced topics in object-oriented program design and the Java programming language. Coverage includes multi-dimensional arrays, methods, error handling, strings, regular expressions, encapsulation, inheritance, polymorphism, generic types, program debugging and testing, database and file processing, event-handling, and graphical user interfaces.
DATA STRUCTURES
COMPSCI 223
This course covers issues of data structures, professional software development methodologies including software patterns, and advanced object-oriented techniques. Topics include lists, queues, stacks, and trees. Complex data structures and object-oriented design techniques, including inheritance and polymorphism, are applied to develop larger projects.
ASSEMBLY PROGRAMMING
COMPSCI 271
This course covers the use of an assembly language based on the RISC processor architecture including writing, linking, and executing a program. Also covered are number systems, instructions for arithmetic and logical operations, memory access, loops, declaring variables, interrupts, machine language, segments, stacks, procedure writing, and file handling.
JAVASCRIPT AND DHTML
COMPSCI 381
JavaScript is a computer language globally used for adding flexibility and functionality to web pages. A powerful language in its own right, it supports event-driven, functional, and imperative programming styles. It also has the capability to make asynchronous calls to server-side scripts. Students in this course will gain a thorough understanding of JavaScript, and learn to harness its abilities to create custom user interfaces and manage windows, forms, events, etc.
