This graduate-level course introduces fundamental principles and practices in embedded systems design and builds upon these principles to study the interaction of computer systems (CPU, memory) and interfacing with those systems. The course covers microcontroller/microprocessor architecture, real-time operating systems (RTOS), hardware/software co-design, system-on-chip (SoC) architectures, and interfacing with peripherals. Prerequisite: three credits of introductory programming and a discrete math course.
Learn optimization and simulation methods including linear optimization, Monte Carlo, and discrete event simulation. Apply modeling to business problems to recommend possible actions toward a solution. Prerequisite: MATH-230 or equivalent and three credits of intro to programming course.
This graduate-level course builds on the foundational concepts of web development introduced at the undergraduate level. This course builds an understanding of how frameworks fit together through project-based learning. Students will gain experience with front-end and back-end development, explore advanced frameworks and tools, and apply best practices in building scalable and efficient web applications. Prerequisite: three-credit web development undergraduate course or equivalent industry experience.
Students work with a team to explore a realistic, open-ended and multifaceted case under the guidance of a faculty advisor. Students carry out and document solution exploration, solution refinement, and prototyping. Restricted to computer science majors with senior standing. Prerequisite: grade of C or highter in 498.
