CS 110 - Introduction to Computing


4 Credit(s) | Lecture & Discussion | Graded or pass/fail
Course can be counted for credit once

Description:
An introduction to computer programming: the concepts involved in use of a higher level language and the program development process. The goal of this course is proficiency in the design and implementation of programs of significant size and complexity. This course is quite demanding because of the length of the programming exercises assigned. This is the first course in the computer science sequence. Note: Credit toward a UMass Boston degree may be awarded for only one elementary programming course. No credit will be given for CS 110 to a student who has already completed a similar course. For instance, a student who has received the equivalent of CS 110 as transfer credit cannot take CS 110 for credit here. Students who are barred from receiving credit for CS 110, but who are not fully prepared for CS 210 , should request permission to take CS 119  as a means of remedying the deficiency.

Course Attribute(s):
Distribution Area: Mathematics and Technology

Enrollment Requirements:
Prerequisite: MATH 130  with a grade of B or higher in the previous semester or placement into MATH 140  on ALEKS
