Course Objective

To study the why, what, and how of Object-Oriented Programming.

Course Prerequisite

CEG 760 Software Engineering

Course Description

This course motivates the need for object-oriented programming, and studies, in detail, object-oriented programming techniques, languages, and technology. The lectures will focus on the foundations of OOP, while the student presentations will focus on the applications and extensions of Object Technology.

Course Load

The course load includes programming assignments (in Java) and a presentation (with descriptive notes) worth 40 points, a midterm worth 30 points, and a final worth 30 points.

Grading

The letter grades will be assigned using the following scale: A[90-100], B[80-90), C[70-80), D[60-70), and F[0-60). However, I reserve the right to adjust the scale somewhat to utilize the gaps in the distribution.
