3.00 Credits
This course explores and applies selected textual, qualitative and critical perspectives in media studies, as well as an overview of major trends and developments in contemporary research in this ara. Research methods in media and cultural studies are emphasized. Prerequisites: Junior or senior standing and a minimum 3.00 average in the major. Credits: 3(3-0) Offered every other year
-
3.00 Credits
This course provides students the chance to make a clear connection between the communication concepts they have learned in their classes and their future personal and professional life. In doing so, students will look back to review and discuss key concepts, look inward to see how these concepts impact their own lives and look forward to make explicit connections to their anticipated future. Concurrently, students willl engage in a self-reflective process in preparation for a professional career. Students will exhibit this reflective experience primarily through the development of a final professional portfolio. Other communication and life skills will be discussed and refined during the course of the semester. Prerequisities: Junior or senior standing and at least 24 completed credit hours in the major or permission of the instructor. Credits: 3(3-0). Offered once yearly

3.00 Credits
This course provides an overview of the major trends in contemporary communication research. Areas of focus include quantitative and qualitative methods for researching communication problems in interpersonal and organizational contexts. Prerequisites: junior or senior standing and a minimum 3.00 average in the major. Credits: 3(3-0) Offered every other year
-
3.00 Credits
A seminar focusing on a topic or related group of topics in mass communication, journalism, rhetoric, or interpersonal/organizational communication. The seminar will incorporate in-class discussion of relevant theory and topical issues as well as independent research related to the selected topics(s). May be taken no more than twice under different subtitles. COMN 391 qualifies as a track-related elective in both the Interpersonal/ Organizational Communication and Journalism/Media Studies tracks. Prerequisites: One 300-level communication course or permission of the instructor. Credits: 3(3- 0) Offered once yearly
-
15.00 Credits
Students are selected on the basis of special qualifications and are assigned as interns with organizations in mass media, business, government, and other pertinent settings. Enrollment is subject to the availability of openings. Open to juniors and seniors in Communication with an overall average of 2.75 and 3.0 in other selected courses appropriate to a particular internship. May be repeated for credit, but students may apply no more than 15 semester hours of internship credit toward the baccalaureate degree. Prerequisites: Permission of the instructor. Up to 3 hours of internship credit may be applied to the required 12 hours of coursework at the 300-level in the major. Offered by individual arrangement
-
1.00 - 6.00 Credits
With faculty approval, may be arranged from the introductory through advanced levels. Students work individually under the supervision of a faculty member on a research-oriented project. (1-6 semester hours.) Offered by individual arrangement
-
6.00 Credits
This course introduces students to the fundamental concepts and problem areas of computer science through a survey of the major sub-areas of the field. Included are historical foundations; computer systems and applications; concepts of computer programming, programming languages, design of microprocessors; theoretical computer science (e.g., abstraction); social, economic, and political implications. Each area will be explored in lecture and in laboratories. Not open to students with more than 6 credit hours of previous college-level computer science course work. Credits: 3(2-1)
-
1.00 - 3.00 Credits
Computers pervade most modern cultures, often in forms not recognized as computers - cell phones, CD and DVD players, identification cards, etc. Spreading use of computers raises important societal questions of privacy, security, property rights and more. This course introduces students with no technical background to algorithms and programs; analyzing algorithms; computer representation of information; such applications of these ideas as digital media, networks, and databases; the social choices and problems such applications raise; and technical and social grounds for evaluating choices and resolving problems.Credits: 3(2-1)
-
0.00 - 3.00 Credits
An introduction to procedural programming for students with little or no prior programming experience. Covers algorithms and their relationship to basic procedural programming concepts; core concepts used in defining algorithms (e.g., input and output, expressions, selection, repetition, sequencing); top-down design and decomposition of programs into subprograms; standard data types, both scalar (e.g., numbers, characters, and boolean values) and composite (arrays, records, files). This material is taught in the context of the particular procedural programming language indicated in the subtitle, and reinforced with programming exercises in that language. Credits: 3(3-0)
-
3.00 Credits
This course provides the foundation for all further study in Computer Science. The primary focus is algorithms, and three methods for studying them: theoretical analysis, empirical experiments, and design (programming). Students will begin learning to apply each of these methods. Topics include algorithmic structures and their expression in a programming language, proofs of an algorithm's correctness, formal notions of algorithm efficiency, experimental methods for measuring efficiency, and recursion/ induction. Prerequisites: CSCI119. Credits: 4(3-2)
