The "Project" category encompasses advanced courses designed to provide students with hands-on, practical experience in applying their knowledge and skills to real-world problems. These courses focus on the development, management, and execution of significant projects, often involving interdisciplinary approaches and collaboration. The primary goal is to prepare students for professional practice by simulating the challenges and dynamics of actual work environments.
The project alternative offers the student the opportunity to develop a software application and the planning of its launching as a product using an entrepreneurial focus. The project topic needs to be approved by the course instructor. The software application development involves a solution to a real-life problem that leverages the computer science knowledge gained through the program. Preference will be given to the development of leading edge applications in areas such as IT Management and Information Assurance, Knowledge Discovery and Data Mining, and Computer Graphics and Game Technology, among other related topics.
