CS 3500: Software Practice

4.00 Credits

University of Utah

Practical exposure to the process of creating large software systems, including requirements specifications, design, implementation, testing, and maintenance. Emphasis on software process, software tools (debuggers, profilers, source code repositories, test harnesses), software engineering techniques (time management, code, and documentation standards, source code management, object-oriented analysis and design), and team development practice. Much of the work will be in groups and will involve modifying preexisting software systems. Prerequisites: Foundational Courses complete AND (Major OR Minor in Kahlert School of Computing OR ECE OR Physics)

CS 3540: Design Human Center Sys

3.00 Credits

University of Utah

In this course, students are introduced to the fundamentals of the field of Human-Centered Computing. Over the course of the semester, students are exposed to human-centered concepts including iterative design, prototyping designs and interactions, visual design, methods for evaluating systems from a human-centered perspective, accessibility, and input and output. The course requires applying these concepts through a range of assignments, including designing and implementing interactive prototypes to address design challenges. Programming is required. Prerequisites: Foundational Courses complete AND (Major OR Minor in Kahlert School of Computing OR ECE)

ShareCS 3540 - Design Human Center Sys
CS 3545: Des Human-Centered Exp

3.00 Credits

University of Utah

In this course, students learn how to identify human needs and goals that technologies might address. Next, students learn to iteratively design technologies that support those goals and promote positive user experiences. Students identify user needs, frame problems, brainstorm solutions, design low-fidelity prototypes, evaluate usability, and communicate the reasoning behind a design. The centerpiece of the course is a semester-long group project in which students learn and apply principles of user-centered design. This course does not focus on implementation and typically does not include any programming. Prerequisites: 'C-' or better in CS 3540 AND Foundational Courses complete AND (Major OR Minor in Kahlert School of Computing OR ECE)

CS 3550: Web Software Dev I

3.00 Credits

University of Utah

This course provides an introduction to web software development. Students will first learn about the fundamental protocols and systems that make the modern web possible. They will then explore the full stack of web software technology from the back end to the front end, including fundamental web security issues, database integration, and client-side page manipulation. Using modern software architectures, programming models, and languages, students will create a complete web application. Prerequisites: 'C-' or better in CS 3500 AND Foundational Courses complete AND (Major OR Minor in Kahlert School of Computing OR ECE)
