Next Semester’s Classes
Introduction to Compilers (COMS 412, 413)
Spring. 3 credits. Prerequisites: COM S 312 (or permission of instructor) and COM S 314. Corequisite: COM S 413.
An introduction to the specification and implementation of modern compilers. Topics covered include lexical scanning, parsing, type checking, code generation and translation, an introduction to optimization, and the implementation of modern programming languages. The course entails a substantial compiler implementation project.
Introduction to Analysis of Algorithms (COMS 482)
Spring, summer. 4 credits. Prerequisites: COM S 280, 312, and either 381 or 481, or permission of instructor.
Techniques used in the creation and analysis of algorithms. Combinatorial algorithms, computational complexity, NP-completeness, and intractable problems.
British Modernist Novel (ENGL 354)
Spring. 4 credits. M. Hite.
Virginia Woolf observed, “in or about December, 1910, human character changed.” In her (tongue-in-cheek) statement, the early twentieth century inaugurated a very different understanding of character, and a consequent shift in the emphasis of the novel. The class reads novels by Woolf, E. M. Forster, D. H. Lawrence, Ford Madox Ford, Jean Rhys, and Rebecca West, along with critical and theoretical writings by these novelists. Writing requirements include a weekly post to the class e-list and two ten to twelve page papers.
Basic Engineering Probability and Statistics (ENGRD 270)
Fall, spring, summer. 3 credits. Prerequisites: MATH 191 and 192.
This course gives students a working knowledge of basic probability and statistics and their application to engineering. Computer analysis of data and simulation are included. Topics include random variables, probability distributions, expectation, estimation, testing, experimental design, quality control, and regression.
Business Law I (HADM 385
Fall, spring. 3 credits. Open to hotel school juniors, seniors, and graduate students and non-hotel school students. Elective. P. Wagner.
Provides students with a presentation of three substantive areas of business law: contracts, intellectual property, and business organizations. Students read judicial opinions, learn to identify issues, and analyze the issues by applying legal principles.
Intro To Handgun Marksmanship & Safety (P ED 371)
Introduction to and instruction in the use of the pistol in the three modes of 50 foot competitive target shooting, i.e., slow fire, timed fire and rapid fire. Major emphasis is placed on safety resulting from a thorough understanding of the operation of the firearm and the personal responsibility of each individual on the range. Classes are 2 hours per meeting. Transportation will be provided.
This is a standard 18 hour credit load. Of course, for the next three semesters I need only take 10 credit hours to graduate, but I would prefer to go above and beyond the minimum and maximize my educational opportunity. After this semester I will need to take 2 more 300+ level English courses, COMS 381, another COMS 400+ course, and a Government, Asian Studies, or History course. That’s only 5 courses!!
