INTRO TO WEB AUTHORING (CS1005)

Introduces Web publishing in 12 sessions. Students will learn the basics of HTML and the use of at least one HTML editor. Site publishing including file structures, image and sound files will be covered.

COMPUTER PROGRAMMING I (CS1040)

This course is a gentle introduction to the field of Computer Science and the fundamental concepts of programming. It starts with a brief history of computing and the basic elements of the computers' architecture.
It focuses on the correct and fluent use of appropriate terminology in CS to describe fundamental concepts and programs.
It has has strong hands-on approach and leads to understanding fundamental concepts such as flow-charts representation of algorithms, conditional statements, iteration, primitive data types, collections and functions.
Students learn to use the documentation of a programming language and understand error messages for debugging.

COMPUTER GAMES DESIGN (CS2020)

This project-based course provides an in-depth understanding of how the computer game design process works. Students with little or no programming experience will learn how to create their own computer games using either "drag-and-drop" game engines to create 2Dimensional and 3Dimensional games without any programming or computer programming for wireless devices (cell phones), using a subset of Java programming language J2ME, with examples from the game development process.

COMPUTER PROGRAMMING II (CS2040)

This course teaches object-oriented programming (OOP) from the ground up. You’ll start with class and object design, then advance to key OOP principles: inheritance, polymorphism, and abstraction. Learn to write reusable, modular code and manage complexity through encapsulation.
The curriculum also covers exception handling, debugging, and testing using modern IDEs, ensuring you can build robust applications. Finally, you’ll get an introduction to GUI design, enabling you to create interactive user interfaces.
By the end, you’ll have the skills to develop well-structured software using OOP best practices.
