Student Outcomes

Ìý

1. Use knowledge of computing fundamentals, knowledge of a computing specialization, and mathematics, science, and domain knowledge appropriate for the computing specialization to the abstraction and conceptualization of computing models from defined problems and requirements.
2. Criticize, compare, and contrast research literature then solve complex computing problems and requirements reaching substantiated conclusions using fundamental principles of mathematics, computing sciences, and relevant domains disciplines.
3. Employ or solve mathematical foundations, algorithmic principles and computer science theory in the modeling and design of computer-based systems in a way that demonstrate comprehension of the tradeoffs involved in design choices.
4. Explain information security issues in relation to the design, development, and use information systems.
5. Evaluate and formulate solutions for complex computing problems and design as well as evaluate systems components or processes that meet specified needs with appropriate consideration for public health and safety, cultural, societal, and environmental considerations.
6. Develop appropriate techniques, resources, design, and modern computing tools to complex computing activities, with an understanding of the limitations to accomplish a common goal.
7. Function effectively as an individual and as a member or leader in diverse teams and in multidisciplinary settings.
8. Communicate effectively with the computing community and with society at large about complex computing activities by being able to comprehend and write effective reports, design documentations, make effective presentations, give and understand clear instructions.
9. Discuss the legal, social, ethical, and professional issues involved in the utilization of computer technology and be guided by the adaption or appropriate professional, ethical, and legal practices.
10. Recognize the need for and have the ability to engage independent learning for continual development as a computing professional.
