Goals for CSC 122 are:

1. Enhance the ability to program
2. Understand different data structures
3. Be able to use different data structures well

Course outcomes for CSC 122 are:

• Upon completion of CSC 122, students will know:
  • how to use and build different data structures including stacks, queues, trees, graphs, and lists
  • a number of different searches and sorts (including O(nlogn) sorts)
  • how to identify Big-O for given algorithms
  • how to completely document code and programs
  • how to thoroughly test a program (including most error conditions)
  • how to identify some potential security issues with code being developed
  • the importance of designing before coding and practice it when warranted.

Program outcomes for CSC 122 are:

1. Analyze a complex computing problem and to apply principles of computing and other relevant disciplines to identify solutions. (Computing student learning outcome 1)
2. Design, implement, and evaluate a computing-based solution to meet a given set of computing requirements in the context of the program\x92s discipline. (Computing student learning outcome 2)
3. Communicate effectively in a variety of professional contexts. (Computing student learning outcome 3)
4. Recognize professional responsibilities and make informed judgments in computing practice based on legal, ethical, and moral principles. (Computing student learning outcome 4)
5. Function effectively as a member or leader of a team engaged in activities appropriate to the program\x92s discipline. (Computing student learning outcome 5)
6. Learn new areas of technology. (Computing student learning outcome 6)
