Relationship between Course Outcomes and Program Outcomes

CSE/ECE 33 substantially supports the following progarm outcomes:

A. An ability to apply knowledge of computing and mathematics appropriate to the discipline

C. An ability to design, implement, and evaluate computer-based system

I. An ability to use current techniques, skills, and tools necessary for computing practices

K. An ability to apply design and development principles in the constructio of software systems of varying complexity

CSE/ECE33 provides modest support to the following program outcome:

J. An ability to apply mathematical foundations, algorithmic principles, and computer science theory in the modeling and design of computer-based systems in a way that demonstrates comprehension of the tradeoffs involved in design choices

Prerequisites by Topic 
1. Basics of computers and computing
2. Familiarity with programming environment
3. Experience in algorithms, flow-charts and programming
