• CSCI-GA.2110-​001
  (1181) Programming Languages  Cory Plock M 4:55-7:25PM Online Additional information: Session I & II (5/19/25 - 8/13/25)
  

  Course Description:

  Discusses the design, use, and implementation of imperative, object-oriented, and functional programming languages. The topics covered include scoping, type systems, control structures, functions, modules, object orientation, exception handling, and concurrency. A variety of languages are studied, including C++, Java, Ada, Lisp, and ML, and concepts are reinforced by programming exercises.

  
  
  Prerequisites: Students taking this class should already have substantial programming experience.
• CSCI-GA.2250-​001
  (1217) Operating Systems  Hubertus Franke M 6:20-8:50PM Online Additional information: Session I & II (5/19/25 - 8/13/25)
  

  Course Description:

  The topics covered include the high-level design of key operating systems concepts such OS structures; process scheduling and synchronization; deadlocks and their prevention; memory management, including (demand) paging; and I/O and file systems. The concepts will be shown in the context of Unix/Linux. The learning is facilitated with labs that implement some of these key design principles and algorithms in C/C++.

  
  
  Prerequisites: None
• CSCI-GA.3812-​001
  (1233) Information Technology Projects *  Jean-Claude Franchitti M 5:30-9:00PM 60 Fifth Ave 110 Additional information: Session I & II (5/19/25 - 8/13/25)
  

  Course Description:

  This is a capstone course that connects students directly with real-world information technology problems. The goal of this course is to teach the skills needed for success in real-world information technology via a combination of classroom lectures and practical experience with large projects that have been specified by local “clients.” The typical clients are primarily companies, but can also be government agencies or nonprofit organizations. Each project lasts for the entire semester and is designed to involve the full software project life cycle. Examples of such projects are development of software to solve a business problem, including specifying requirements, writing and testing prototype code, and writing a final report; and evaluation of commercial software to be purchased to address a business problem, including gathering requirements, designing an architecture to connect the new software with existing systems, and assessing the suitability of available software products.

  
  
  Prerequisites: For MS in IS students: Successful completion of CSCI-GA 1170 Fundamental Algorithms and two of the following three courses: CSCI-GA 2262 Data Communications & Networks; CSCI-GA 2250 Operating Systems; CSCI-GA 2433 Database Systems. For MS in CS students: Successful completion of CSCI-GA 1170 Fundamental Algorithms, CSCI-GA 2110 Programming Languages, and CSCI-GA 2250 Operating Systems. PERMISSION OF THE DEPARTMENT REQUIRED.
• CSCI-UA.0002-​001
  (3460) Intro To Computer Programming (No Prior Experience)  Amos Bloomberg MTWR 11:10-1:15PM Online Additional information: Session I (5/19/25 - 7/1/25)
  

  Course Description:

  An introduction to the fundamentals of computer programming, which is the foundation of computer science. Students design, write, and debug computer programs. No knowledge of programming is assumed.

  
  
  Prerequisites: Three years of high school mathematics or equivalent. No prior computing experience is assumed. Students with any programming experience should consult with the department before registering. Students with any reported score on the Computer Science AP examination cannot enroll in this course; Albert will block them from registering for it. Students who have taken or are taking Introduction to Computer Science (CSCI-UA 101) will not receive credit for this course. Does not count toward the computer science major; serves as the prerequisite for students with no previous programming experience who want to continue into CSCI-UA 101 and pursue the major. Students may not receive credit for both CSCI-UA 2 and CSCI-UA 3.
