Computer Science (continued) 420-612-LA Practicum 2: System Implementation (Concentration course for Computer Science students only) This capstone course provides depth in the application and integration of core system development and implementation concepts. Emphasis is placed on the integration of systems analysis/design techniques learned in the Practicum 1 course with concepts of operating systems, data structures, file and database processing, computer architecture and software engineering. This is a project course that requires significant collaborative in and out‐of‐class work, written documents and oral presentations. Students will carry out autonomous milestones using different software development tools. Traditional structured programming, scripting programming and/or object oriented programming may be used in the various projects to be implemented. 6 hours/week Units: 3.00 Prerequisite: 420-514 & either 420-515 OR 420 512 420-613-LA Emerging Technologies (Concentration course for Computer Science students only) This course was designed with a focus on some of the major technologies that are already being deployed, as well as those that will be deployable within the next one to three years. 3 hours/week Units: 1.66 Prerequisite: 420-514 & either (420-515 or 420-512) 420-614-LA Portfolio (Concentration course for Computer Science students only) Portfolios are being used as an assessment tool and as a general record of student achievement while studying in our faculty. A portfolio allows students to integrate text and the full range of digital media, including photos, illustrations, data sheets, audio, video recordings, data and information into programming assignments which will be marked according to criteria’s established by the instructors for all course’s final projects. It is acknowledged that electronic media, specifically in our field, is well suited to portfolio use and development. Successful completion of all 420 program courses from semester 1 through 5 with the only exception being 1 general education course in either English, Humanities, French, Complementary or Physical Education and not a block-B in English, Humanities or French. 3 hours/week Units: 1.33 420-D1L-LA Computer Applications for Commerce (Complementary course for Commerce Option students only) This course introduces students to computer software that is needed in order to be well-prepared to enter Commerce at university or to function in any kind of business environment. Students will learn the correct way to create documents, workbooks, spreadsheets, databases and presentation for professional purposes. Students will also acquire experience in integrating information among the various software applications, e.g., how to import EXCEL documents into Word, how to integrate Word documents, spreadsheets and databases into presentation software, etc. 3 hours/week Units 1.66
Creative Arts 502-101-LA Art & Ideas (Concentration course for Creative Arts students only) This course focuses on the inherent human urge to express knowledge, emotions, values and beliefs artistically.

Throughout the course, students will appreciate the socio-historical and technological reasons that led one movement into the next. Some trends of the Modern Era will be discussed more closely for their importance. Examples from different artistic domains will be used to substantiate and clarify in the mind of the students the meaning of the various currents. 3 hours/week Units: 2.00 510-101-LA Intro to Digital Imaging/Studio Arts (Concentration course for Creative Arts students only – all profiles) This course, and the profile it introduces, was designed with the belief that artists working in the digital field will go much further if they have a firm footing in studio arts practice. In this introductory course, we attempt to take into consideration the needs of students from all areas of creative arts. This course will lay the foundation for more indepth study of combined fields of digital imaging and the studio arts. We will concentrate on principles of spatial organization that are fundamental to all forms of expression in the visual arts. Students will learn through practice that various qualities of the same thing (i.e., line) can create different messages. They will also begin discussion of visual signs and symbols as they relate to meaning. 3 hours/week Units: 1.66 510-212-LA 2D Computer Imaging (Concentration course for students in Creative Arts - Digital Imaging/Studio Arts profile only) This course uses the computer as an important research tool in the exploration of visual language, design and the creative process. Working with Photoshop, students will learn to create, manage and manipulate graphic files, while developing their own imagery and visual ideas. An emphasis will be placed on integrating the students’ digital experience with the rest of the studio practice. Students will be graded on their mastery of technical skills and their creativity at finding solutions to 2D design problems. The course will start with 3 weeks of experiments in image manipulation, followed by 3 thematic projects. The themes proposed: Surrealist Collage, Drawing from Music and Self-Portrait will emphasize aspects of visual language and design. Students will be encouraged to create links between formal aspects of digital image-making with content and meaning. 3 hours/week Units: 2.00 Prerequisite: 510-101 or with written permission from instructor
