Requisites: This course introduces software packages used for drawing, image manipulation, and three-dimensional modeling. Emphasis is placed on solving design problems through appropriate visual communication techniques and on using the packages in combination to produce final documents. Upon completion, students should be able to prepare informational graphics and images and create rendered three-dimensional models. SGR-131 Computer Graphics Concepts 3 3 0 4 This course provides an overview of two- and three-dimensional graphics using polygonal models and introduces the use of graphics tool kits in computer programming. Topics include terminology, viewing systems, object properties, illumination, shading, animation, and image manipulation, with introductory coverage of advanced modeling, rendering, and system construction techniques. Upon completion, students should be able to understand computer graphics fundamentals, program using a graphics tool kit, and be prepared for further study in computer graphics. SGR-133 3-D Geometry 3 3 0 4 Requisites: This course covers descriptive and analytic geometry. Topics include lines, surfaces, and solids in three-dimensional space, revolutions, projections, and the associated mathematics. Upon completion, students should be able to demonstrate an understanding of the relationship between the graphical representation of geometry and its mathematical description. SGR-142 Data Visualization I 2 3 0 3 This course provides an introduction to data visualization through the use of mathematical and data visualization software packages. Topics include mathematical software packages, data visualization packages, spatial skills, and applications of visualization in science and technical fields. Upon completion, students should be able to understand graphical methods for representing data, creating multi-dimensional graphs, and be prepared to pursue further studies in visualization.
