Course Description

This course is required for all freshmen (first-year) CCS Computing majors.

Students taking this course will have an opportunity to build a piece of software of their own design, guided by the instructor, and supported by the community of fellow students.

It is a hands-on project and assignment-based course where students will gain strong practical and technical skills in various programming languages including C, C++, and Java, UNIX/Linux: shell, tools, utilities and programming environments, user interfaces, and software engineering principles.

This is a 4 units credit course. Units awarded will be based upon attendance, general homework assignments, and individual projects. Instruction and hands on lab work will be 100% in the classroom, where students are expected to work on their own laptop computers. If the student does not own a computer they should check with the instructor for alternative arrangements.
