CSC100
Introduction to Computer Science
(C++)
4 creditsConcepts of
problem solving, structured programming in C++,
fundamental algorithms and techniques, and computer
systems concepts. Social and ethical
responsibilities.
CSC110
Introduction to Computer Science (Java) 4
creditsConcepts of
problem solving, structured and object-oriented
programming in Java, fundamental algorithms and
techniques and computer system concepts. Social and
ethical responsibilities. Intended for Computer Science
and Computer Systems Engineering Majors.
CSC120 Digital Design
Fundamentals 4
creditsNumber systems,
conversion methods, binary and complement arithmetic,
Boolean and switching algebra, circuit minimizations,
ROMs, PLAs, flip-flops, synchronous sequential circuits,
register transfer design. Building physical
circuits.
CSC150 Programming in
C++ 4 creditsFlow control,
functions, pointers, data structures, file handling, and
introduction to object-oriented programming. This course
teaches core C++ assuming an existing background in
computer programming. This is not an introductory course;
CSC100 or equivalent coursework/experience is assumed.
Core C++ language constructs.
CSC181 Applied Problem Solving with
Visual BASIC 4
creditsIntroduction to
systematic definition of problems, solution formulation,
and testing. Visual BASIC programming language applied to
problems in mathematics, science, and business.
CSC185 World Wide Web and Introductory
Internet Programming 3 creditsThe Internet
opens up a whole new arena of available information:
textual and multi-media. This introductory course
describes how this information is organized and accessed,
how new information is made available on the Internet,
how to create home pages that include multi-media, and
how to make those pages interact with the end-user. This
course also addresses the more serious side of this
technology: privacy, security and ethical issues. This
course is not intended for Computer Science majors
although they are welcome to take it as an elective.
CSC200 Principles of Computer
Science 4 creditsIntroduction to
computer science. Issues and concepts throughout the
field, including software development, data organization,
machine architecture, algorithmic machines, and ethics in
computing. Programming in Java.
CSC210 Data Structures and
Algorithms 4 creditsStatic and
dynamic data structures and associated applications;
recursive and iterative sorting and searching algorithms;
introduction to Object-Oriented design and programming
techniques; software engineering methods including design
models and implementation/testing strategies; C++ or Java
languages used. Beginning in Spring 1999, there will be
two flavors of this course; one will be taught using C++;
the other will use the Java programming
language.
CSC225 Assembly Language
Programming
4 creditsAssembly Language
programming, including input/output programming and
exception/interrupt handling. Register level computer
organization, I/O interfaces, assemblers, and linkers.
Motorola HC11 microcontroller architecture.
