CSC 450: Senior Project : 3 hours

Description

Students will showcase knowledge and skills by completing a project of their own design (approved by the department). Prerequisite: Permission of the instructor.

Goals for CSC 450 are:

• Upon completion of CSC 450 students will understand:
  • how to define, research, and complete a complex project in computing
  • how to write up their work in a technical document
  • how to present their work
  • how to identify security and ethical issues in a topic of their choosing

Course outcomes for CSC 450 are:

• Upon completion of CSC 450 students will understand:
  • how to define, research, and complete a complex project in computing
  • how to write up their work in a technical document
  • how to present their work
  • how to identify security and ethical issues in a topic of their choosing

Program outcomes for CSC 450 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)
