Objectives
- The overall goal of this course is to increase your proficiency in computer
programming and problem solving for a degree and career in the computer and
information sciences. You will learn advanced techniques in problem solving
using the language Java. You will develop algorithms and design computer programs
using object oriented techniques
-
Course Organization
- Keep up and keep prepared. This class can easily snowball on you (it
most definitely has on many students that have come before you).Utilize
your resources (upper division majors, myself, Internet) to gain both the
theory and practice needed to succeed in this course. A solid mastery of
the material covered in CSIS201 will be assumed. This course will require
a lot of out of class time. The work load will be similar to CSIS201. Do not
wait until you are behind to put in the time needed... it will be too late!!!

- I do not expect you to give more than 100% towards this class, however
I also will accept no less

met. You will need to provide current documentation of your disability
to Disability Services. For more information, contact Director
of Disability Services.

Grading
- One quick note on my grading style... Quality is everything!!!
The skills developed in this course set the foundation for the a
degree in computer science. It is imperative that you complete this
course with 'mastery' of industry standard programming
techniques. NO CREDIT will be given to any late work without
a previous arrangement.. Incompletes will NOT be given in
this class except under EXTREME circumstances.
Grades will be calculated on the following percentage basis: - 60% Programs/Projects/Homework
- 40% Exams (2-quizzes, midterm, & final)(There are NO MAKE-UPS... without
a previous arrangement)
