F. Topic: Popular Music Studies-Critical Approaches to Popular Music.
-
3.00 Credits
F and S. This capstone course examines the application of a Reformed worldview to understanding communication and culture, especially communication- related vocations. It concentrates on the relationships between the Christian faith and professional communication and focuses on the ways in which communication-related professions define professional activity and on the responsibilities that Christians have to work in and through professions. It also examines a Christian view of success, the importance of understanding one's gifts, finding and using mentors, committing to a location, mastering persuasive, honest interviewing and resume-writing, networking with reciprocity, overcoming Christian tribalism in a world economy, and being patiently flexible in the face of economic and cultural changes. Prerequisites: Biblical Foundations I or Theological Foundations I, Developing a Christian Mind, and Philosophical Foundations.
-
2.00 Credits
F. An introduction to problem solving and program design for engineers and scientists using the language C++. Coverage includes I/O, types and expressions, libraries, functions and parameter passing, control structures, files, array processing, and classes (including the use of templates) Prerequisite Mathematics 132 or 161, which may be taken concurrently.
-
4.00 Credits
F and S. An introduction to computing as a problemsolving discipline. A primary emphasis is on programming as a methodology for problem solving, including: the precise specification of a problem, the design of its solution, the encoding of that solution, and the testing, debugging and maintenance of programs. A secondary emphasis is the discussion of top- ics from the breadth of computing including historical, theoretical, ethical and biblical perspectives on computing as a discipline. Laboratory. Meets the Information Technology core requirement.
-
4.00 Credits
F and S. A continuation of 108 or 104, using C++ classes to introduce and implement the elementary data structures including lists, stacks, queues and trees. Advanced programming techniques such as indirection, inheritance and templates are introduced; along with an emphasis on algorithm analysis, efficiency and good programming style. Laboratory. Prerequisite: 108, 104, or permission of the instructor.
-
1.00 Credits
F. An introduction to information processing with databases. This course introduces table structure, keys, queries, reports and the relational database model. Prerequisite: Foundations of Information Technology Core.
-
1.00 Credits
F and S. An introduction to the use of presentation software and desktop publishing software. Students will use current software packages to create presentation materials and newsletters and brochures of publication quality. In addition to the mechanics of using the packages, layout and composition issues will be addressed. Prerequisite: Foundations of Information Technology Core.

F and S. An introduction to numerical computation using spreadsheets, including basic operations, graphs and charts, decision making, data management and macros. Prerequisite: Foundations of Information Technology Core.
-
3.00 Credits
F. A systematic study of algorithms and their application to data structures, including arrays, lists, trees, heaps, hash tables and graphs. Algorithms and data structures are analyzed in their use of both time and space, and the choice of data structure in problem solving is studied. Theoretical issues, such as optimality, best and worst-case performance and limitations of algorithms are studied, as well as implementation issues. Prerequisite: 112 and Mathematics 156. (Mathematics 156 may be taken concurrently)
