Fall Academic Term, 2001 (September 5 - December 21) Open courses in Computer Science (*Not real-time Information. Review the "Data current as of: " statement at the bottom of hyperlinked page) Wolverine Access Subject listing for CMPTRSC Fall Term '01Time Schedule for Computer Science. CMPTRSC 181 / EECS 181. Introduction to Computer Systems. Section 001. Instructor(s): Karen Langona (langona@umich.edu) Prerequisites & Distribution: Intended for students whose goal is computer literacy; not intended for computer science, computer engineering, electrical engineering concentrators. (4). (Excl). (BS). CAEN lab access fee required for non-Engineering students. Credits: (4). Lab Fee: CAEN lab access fee required for non-Engineering students. Course Homepage: http://www.umich.edu/~cs181/ CS181 is meant to develop students into better computer users by offering a broad overview of how computers influence our lives. The lecture establishes what a computer is and how its parts affect the whole. Some time will be spent discussing different types of software and what makes good software — this will better prepare students to critically evaluate the lab material. In laboratory, students learn how to increase their productivity with several commercial software packages — Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint as well as Filemaker Pro. Intended for non CE/CS/EE majors whose goal is computer literacy. Check Times, Location, and Availability Cost: No Data Given. Waitlist Code: 1 CMPTRSC 183 / EECS 183. Elementary Programming Concepts. Instructor(s): Ann R Ford (aford@umich.edu) Prerequisites & Distribution: Not intended for engineering students. Students intending transfer to the College of Engineering should take Engin. 101. CS concentrators who qualify should elect CS 280. Credit is granted for only one course among CS 183 or Engineering 101. (4). (MSA). (BS). CAEN lab access fee required for non-Engineering students. Credits: (4). Lab Fee: CAEN lab access fee required for non-Engineering students. Course Homepage: http://www.eecs.umich.edu/~arford/183home.html What's the Course About? EECS/CS 183 is intended for both majors and non-majors in Computer Science. The course does indeed teach "elementary programming concepts." The underlying goal of the course is to enable students to learn and apply fundamental programming techniques and solve basic programming problems using a high-level programming language. Currently the language used is C++. Textbook/Coursepack Readings: Programming in C++, by Nell Dale, Chip Weems & Mark Headington, 2nd Edition, Jones & Bartlett, Publishers, 2001. Practical Debugging in C++, by Ann Ford & Toby Teorey, 2000. Check Times, Location, and Availability Cost: No Data Given. Waitlist Code: No Data Given. CMPTRSC 285 / EECS 285. A Programming Language or Computer System. Section 001 – Java. Instructor(s): Prerequisites & Distribution: Some programming knowledge required. (2). (Excl). (BS). CAEN lab access fee required for non-Engineering students. Credits: (2). Lab Fee: CAEN lab access fee required for non-Engineering students.
