Description

May be repeated for credit when topics differ. An examination of computational approaches to problem solving in a variety of contexts, either within the computer science discipline or between computer science and other disciplines. Students will be given an understanding of how knowledge is developed and managed using digital technologies in various disciplines. How the course implements this structure will vary across offerings, but typically will involve determining what kinds of information form the basis for a discipline, a survey of techniques for storing and manipulating that information, and a project that either gives the student experience working with actual datasets from the discipline or investigation into alternate ways of gathering, storing, and accessing that information.
