Data Science
MCIT
This lecture, taught in Austria at Management Center Innsbruck as a guest lecturer introduced the fundamentals of relational database systems with a practical focus on SQL. Students learned how data is structured in relational models, how to design efficient database schemas, and how to retrieve and manipulate data using SQL queries. Real-world use cases and hands-on exercises highlighted the role of relational databases in business and management applications.
Introduction to Programming for Business Analytics
ANOP 203
Overview of programming tools and methods for analytics. Students solved computational and modeling problems using Python. This foundation of programming logic helped students understand advanced analytic tools in the upper-level Business Analytics courses.
Creative Computing & Society
CSCI 187
Introduced computing through creativity and examined social problems, guiding students to create visual artifacts that empowered them to draw insights from data, complemented by discussions on computing's societal impact.
Computer Systems
CSCI 306
Covered fundamental concepts showcasing the integration of hardware and software. Topics included data representation, processor, memory, I/O, Unix system programming in C and assembly, introduction to operating systems, and development tools.
Operating Systems
CSCI 315
Introduced operating system design including processor management, scheduling, memory management, resource allocation, file systems and concurrency.
Computer Architecture
CSCI 320
Used a hardware description language to describe and design digital computing systems. Topics included processor design, pipelining, cache and storage systems, instruction, thread, and process level parallelism, speculation, and branch prediction.
Computer Science Design Project
CSCI 479
Students in teams used software engineering methodology to design and implement a semester-long project.
Engineering Design Experience
ENG 100
Introduced procedural computation using the Alice Software to create interactive 3D animations and simple games. Emphasized problem solving, algorithmic thinking, and the design process.
User Interface & UX Design
FOUN 098
In this course we made an effort to understand exactly how user interfaces and human-computer interaction affected satisfaction, purchase decisions, filtering of information and a variety of other goals. We looked at what made effective designs and how user-experience was shaped by what was seen, heard and felt when interacting with computers.
