A current topic in computer science that
builds on one or more of the prerequisites. The topic is the
basis of the team project in the other part of the course.
The topic will be presented in sufficient depth to be
appropriate for a senior level course. It will integrate
students’ prior knowledge and extend their understanding of
a subfield of computer science. |

Teams will be organized in groups of two or
three students. The scope of the project will be large
enough that it cannot be completed by a single person during
one semester. Most of the project activities will take place
outside the classroom, with class time used for discussion
of technical or theoretical questions that arise in the
development process and regular progress reports by team
members. The final product will include written
documentation of the software design and a user manual. |
