COMPUTER SCIENCE/MULTIMEDIA STUDIES
PROGRAM OBJECTIVES
Students in the Computer Science/ Multimedia Studies program prepare for a future in software development and the use of computer technology to solve complex problems. An initial core of classes introduces students to general principles of programming and multimedia development. Upon completion of the core students choose either a concentration in computer science or multimedia studies.
Students in the computer science concentration will learn to design and develop software systems for industrial, scientific, and commercial applications. They will acquire an understanding of computer operating systems, programming, data structures and algorithms, and systems analysis. Graduates will be prepared to work in the private or public sectors as programmers, analysts, or software engineers, or to proceed to advanced study.
Students completing a degree in the multimedia studies concentration will be prepared to design and develop interactive multimedia products for use in education, industry, or the non-profit sector. These graduates will be able to design and assemble CD, DVD, or Web delivered titles, and will be prepared to work in publishing, training support, or many other areas.
LEARNING OUTCOMES
All program graduates will:
- understand the process of software design and development;
1. be able to develop functional specifications for a product,
2. be able to design the interface for the product, taking into account the characteristics of the material and anticipated users;
3. choose the appropriate development environment for the product;
4. select the appropriate data representations and algorithms to provide optimal performance;
5. create a robust, efficient, maintainable final product; and
6. develop complete documentation for the finished package.
- understand how to integrate revisions into existing software packages
- understand how to communicate effectively with user populations and other software developers to collaboratively develop new packages.
In addition to the three core outcomes listed above, graduates in the computer science concentration will:
- demonstrate proficiency in several programming languages, including procedural and object-oriented languages;
- demonstrate understanding of computer operating systems and how to develop programs that work at the system level;
- analyze situations and develop appropriate solutions, even if the solutions do not require the use of a computer.
In addition to the core outcomes, graduates in the multimedia studies track will:
- demonstrate proficiency in the use of one or more authoring tools for the development of interactive software for stand-alone or web use;
- demonstrate general understanding of how various media (still images, video, and audio) are represented and manipulated in digital environments; and
- demonstrate ability to appropriately integrate various digital media into an interactive product.
MEANS OF ASSESSMENT
The outcomes for each class will be clearly stated on the syllabus. Assessments for courses will address both the conceptual and applied aspects of the class. Means of assessment include projects, quizzes and exams. The objectives for projects and other assigned work tie directly into course outcomes.
In addition to course-level assessment, the program provides for assessment of the students abilities to integrate concepts from the entire spectrum off coursework. Each student is required to develop a capstone project prior to graduation. The precise nature of the capstones vary according to specific student interests, but generally include the complete design documents for a software product and the finished product itself.
