LENGTH OF STUDY: Up to one year ACCREDITATION: General Assoc of Science & Transfer to BSc CAMPUS: Castlegar Program Summary Selkirk College offers elective courses in computer science. These elective courses are transferable to a variety of post-secondary institutions. Course requirements vary among post-secondary institutions. We advise that you plan your program with a Selkirk College counsellor or contact the UAS School Chair for information on transferability. CPSC 100 — Introduction to Programming I CPSC 101 — Introduction to Programming II Admission Requirements Admission to the program requires the completion of Pre-calculus 12, Foundations 12, MATH 051 or MATH 50 with a grade of ā€œCā€ or better, or written permission of the Instructor and School Chair. Other prerequisites depend on the electives chosen to complete the program. Students who lack the admission requirements may still gain entry to the program by taking a combination of upgrading and university courses in their first year. This may extend the length of their program. For University Arts & Sciences course descriptions: see page 260 selkirk.ca/programs Computer Science selkirk.ca/program/computer-science Program Courses: CPSC 100 - INTRODUCTION TO PROGRAMMING | An introductory object-oriented (O00) programming course with emphasis on basic programming constructs, algorithms, program design, and good programming practices. This course will introduce a high-level language to illustrate programming basics. Students will develop and test small OO programs which loop, make decisions, access arrays, define classes, instantiate objects, and invoke methods. CPSC 101 - INTRODUCTION TO PROGRAMMING II This course is a continuation of CPSC 100 with emphasis on more advanced programming techniques and design, development and test of large applications. Students will write programs which make use of library functions to display graphical user interfaces, manage collections of data, access files and databases, and interact with other programs.
