9 courses with the subject SDEV, each shown exactly as we captured it from the college's catalog, with every element we hold. Where the wording looks broken, that is our reading of the catalog, not the college's text.
SDEV 1000Software Development Skills I3
This course introduces the basic skills of professional practice and ethics in software development. Students will be introduced to industry standard tools, techniques, and practices for team and software management. Students will learn to use online resources in their work while reflecting on various approaches to problem solving. Students will experience working in teams in the context of realistic software projects. (3 hrs lec)
Building on the content in Software Development Skills I, this course further develops a student’s professional software development skills: Basic project management, extensive reflection on the notion of code quality, and developing skills and knowledge relating to the use of a range of industry-standard software development tools. It also includes indispensable background technical knowledge which does not fit neatly into other courses. Again, this course builds on the context and experiences of the problems tackled through this semester.
This course continues the introduction to the professional practice of programming. Through the study of object design and efficient, comprehensible procedures, this course explores algorithms, graphics, human-computer interfaces, and the social implications of computing. Given a variety of problems, students analyze, design, implement, and test solutions utilizing contemporary programming language and open-source software components.
