CS 160 Computer Science Orientation (4 Credits)
Provides a broad overview of the discipline of computer science. Learn the foundations of computer science such as problem solving and algorithms, programming concepts, and computer hardware. Research careers available in computer science, pathways to computer careers, and reflect on some of the influences computers have had and continue to have on society. Write programs in a variety of programming languages.
CS 161 Computer Science I (4 Credits)
Examines the nature of computer programming; includes discussion of a computer model, methods of problem solving and programming structures; information representation; algorithm construction; object-oriented design.
CS 162 Computer Science II (4 Credits)
Emphasizes the development of data structures, algorithm analysis, recursion, and sorting. Also explores several basic programming constructs, inheritance, interfaces, exceptions, and files/streams. Covers software engineering methods, proper program development, and attention to program planning and documentation.
