real so?ware differs from most classroom projects in several significant ways. It must satisfy the needs of users in terms of functionality, reliability, and usability and it must be maintainable so that it can be adapted as user needs change. In this course, students will work with a client to develop so?ware for that client. This requires meeting with the client to understand the needs, designing, implementing and testing the so?ware, and finally delivering the so?ware to the client. Strong communication skills and good teamwork will be emphasized, as the entire class works together and with the client to produce a single piece of so?ware. Programming intensive. Meets Science and Math II-A requirement B. Lerner Prereq. Computer Science 315; 4 credits

The goal of this class is to provide the student with a working knowledge of how computers operate and the general principles that affect their performance. New developments in hardware render current technologies obsolete within one to three years. rather than focusing on specific technology, we cover the fundamentals that allow your understanding of technology to grow with future developments. you will also gain a better appreciation of the cost/performance trade-offs encountered in designing a computer system. Meets Science and Math II-A requirement L. Ballesteros Prereq. Computer Science 211 and 221; 4 credits

3.00 Credits
The creation of pictorial images using a computer. Topics include drawing of two- and three-dimensional scenes using OpengL and other graphical environments; transformations of objects (translations, scalings, rotations, shearings) using homogeneous coordinates; creating perspective in three-dimensional drawing; algorithms for enhancing realism and visual effect; and the mathematical underpinnings of graphic design. Students will complete a number of graphics projects based on readings and class discussion. This course is programming intensive. Meets Science and Math II-A requirement R.Weaver Prereq. Computer Science 101, 211 (may be taken concurrently), and at least one of Mathematics 203, Mathematics 211, Mathematics 232, or permission of instructor; 4 credits
