About this course

Computational thinking is a fundamental skill for everyone, irrespective of the discipline, for whom the focus is on solving problems. The goal of this course is to equip students with the basic ability to use computational principles such as abstraction, decomposition, and divide and conquer. The course will introduce students to basic programming constructs (such as control statements) and data structures to facilitate learning of these computational principles. This course is intended forstudents with little or no computing background. Note: Students cannot get credit for both CIS 2300 and MTH 3300 (Algorithms, Computers, and Programming I). CIS majors will be required to take an additional CIS course if receiving credit for MTH 3300 to satisfy 24-credit requirement for the CIS major.
