The CS/SE concentration is designed for students planning to transfer to a Computer Science or Software Engineering program at a four-year college. Students should consult a Lakeland counselor prior to beginning this program in order to ensure maximum transferability.
This program requires at least two semesters of Calculus and Analytical Geometry. In addition, many four year schools require no less than a B-minus grade in any course in the major.
This program, in addition to being a transfer program, will help students who are interested in game and entertainment programming acquire the fundamental skills to get started.
Selected Course Descriptions
ITCS 2012 Discrete Structures 3 credits Prerequisite:
MATH 1650 or higher, ITCS 1810 or ITCS 1820 or ITCS 1840; or permission of
instructor
This course provides an introduction to the foundations
of discrete mathematics as they apply to computer science, and focuses on
providing a solid theoretical foundation for further work. Topics include
logic, set algebra, equivalence relations and partitions, functions, mathematical
induction, cardinality, recurrence relations, basic combinatorial methods,
and trees and graphs; with an emphasis on applications in computer science.
(3 contact hours)
ITCS 2080 Fundamentals of Software Engineering 3 credits Prerequisite: ITCS
1810 or ITCS 1820 or ITCS 1840, ITCS 2010; or permission of instructor
This course introduces the basic principles and concepts of software engineering
and provides the necessary foundation for subsequent SE courses at the upper
division level. Topics include: basic terminology and concepts of software
engineering; system requirements, modeling, and testing; object oriented analysis
and design using UML; frameworks and APIs; client-server architecture; user
interface technology; and the analysis, design, and programming of simple servers
and clients. (4 contact hours: 2.5 lecture, 1.5 lab)
ITCS 2870 Data Structures 4 Credits Prerequisite: ITCS 1820, MATH 2500; or permission of instructor
This traditional computer science course introduces students to advanced data structure concepts including objects and inheritance, algorithm analysis, recursion, stacks, queues, lists, randomization, trees, sorting and searching, hash tables, and graphs and paths. (6 contact hours: 2 lecture, 4 lab)
ITCS 2875 Computer Architecture and Organization 3 Credits Prerequisite: ITON
1011, ITCS 2870, MATH 2500; or permission of instructor
This course provides a study of the principles of Von Neumann computer architecture,
data representation, and memory addressing as well as processor organization
and its impact on system and application software. It also includes discussion
and utilization of assembly language and computer processor simulators. (5 contact
hours: 1 lecture, 4 lab)
