Courses

Covers tools and practices for software development with a strong focus on best practices used in industry and professional development, such as agile methodologies, pair-programming and test-driven design. Students develop web services and applications while learning these methods and tools. Prerequisites: Requires prerequisite course of CSCI 2270 (minimum grade C-).
Advanced practicum in which students design, implement, document and test software systems for use in industry, non-profits, government and research institutions. Also offers extensive experience in oral and written communication throughout the development process. Successful completion of a minimum of 36 credit hours of the Computer Science Foundation, Track Foundation, Track Core, Computer Science electives, and approved WRTG are required to enroll. Prerequisites: Requires prerequisite courses of CSCI 3155 and CSCI 3308 (all minimum grade C-). Restricted to students with 87-180 credits (Senior, Fifth Year Senior) Computer Science (CSEN) majors or Computer Science Concurrent Degree majors only.
