CREDIT(S) : 2

PREREQUISITE(S) : NONE

SYNOPSIS

FUNDAMENTAL PROGRAMMING course provides the skills necessary for the

effective of application of computation and computer programming in engineering
applications. Students will develop their programming skills through a variety of
assignments and labs and by reviewing case studies and example programs. The
learning outcome is proficiency in writing small to medium programs in a procedural
programming language.

COURSE LEARNING OUTCOMES (CLO)

Upon completion of this course, students should be able to:

1. apply knowledge of basic concepts and fundamentals of structured

programming. (C3, PLO1)

2. solve a variety of engineering and scientific problems using a high level

programming language and apply critical thinking. (C3, PLO2)

3. construct, run and debug programs written in C language for assigned project
during practical work sessions. (P4, PLO5)

4. demonstrate continuous learning and information management skill in

independent acquisition of new knowledge and skill to develop a project. (A3,
PLO8)
