This course covers software testing strategies, along with established best practices, so students learn how to test their software in a complete and systematic (vice ad-hoc) manner. Particular attention is paid to planning, writing, and executing software tests, along with associated documentation, (i.e., a software test plan), which includes documented results. Various projects are assigned, designed to illustrate various challenges associated with software testing, and to reinforce the strategies and techniques used to overcome these challenges.

Computer Science & Engineering Syllabi
This course is concerned with the techniques of designing and constructing large programs. Some of the required basic concepts necessarily have to be developed using small programs as examples. To this extent, we also study programming-in-the-small. The overall objectives are to present an overview of issues in the development of software, to discuss terminology, to illustrate via example case studies, and to give sufficiently detailed advice on how to develop quality software and present a way of communication via UML. Hands-on experience is emphasized through the use of homework and a class project.

Cs 1000: Technology And Society, John A. Reisner
Computer Science & Engineering Syllabi
What impact does technology have on society? As technology plays a greater role in our everyday lives, this becomes an increasingly important question. We have seen unprecedented advances over the past few decades, but sometimes benefits can be offset by unforeseen consequences and repercussions (such as privacy concerns, identity theft, or safety). The goal of this course is to evaluate the consequences of technological advances on individuals, organizations, and society, and identify potential benefits and limitations, by examining and discussing and how social, ethical, legal and philosophical repercussion impact society.
