Wumpus WorldCSI 497required that I designed and defined a project. The project was required to involve current topics in computing and information science and incorporate material from several of the courses required for my majot (Interactive Media). My project had to be researched and documented. Each of us will have to lead a class discussion and make a presentation about their project proposal. Other current topics related to computing and information science as well as careers in those areas are to be presented.
CSI 498This capstone course combines with CSI 497 and requires that students implement a project that was defined in the previous course. Projects will involve current topics in computing and information science and incorporate material from several of the courses required for their major. Projects will be researched and documented with a formal paper completed at its conclusion. Each student will lead a class discussion and make a formal presentation about their project. Other current topics related to computing and information science as well as careers in those areas are presented. This course will concentrate on the definition and design of the project to be implemented.
