CIT130 Object Oriented Programming: Java 4 credits Prerequisite(s): CIT111/CIT501 This course focuses on object-oriented programming and design using the Java programming language. Topics covered are: language-independent program design skills, basic language elements (control structures, arrays, strings). Object- Oriented design (classes, inheritance, polymorphisms), error and exception handling input/output, streams, introduction to data structures, commercial software libraries, graphical user interface components and multimedia.

Instructor’s Note: This is a 16 week class compressed to 10 weeks. I am leaving nothing out. That means we are going to be moving fast on a difficult course. Remember that this is a 4 credit class and should require a level of work comparable to a calculus class. Expect to put in 2 hours of outside work for each hour of class time. Since we meet 6 hours a week, expect to put in 12 hours additional a week studying and doing homework – at a minimum.
