Expanded Course Description
CIS 210 is the first course in the Computer and Information Science major sequence. The primary objective of this course is to introduce the basic concepts and practices of computer science. The core ideas of computer programming will be explored using the Python programming language. We will cover fundamental approaches to problem solving and the creation of software solutions as well as introduce the notions of data abstraction and object-oriented programming. Previous programming experience or a computer science course such as CIS 122 Introduction to Programming and Problem Solving or CIS 105 Explorations in Computing is expected.
