CSCI115
- Introduction to Computing for Scientists
Computers are becoming an increasingly important aspect of the biological, physical and social sciences, whether we use them as part of an existing instrument, whether we’re building new equipment, or whether we need to build new software. This course will talk about the limits of computing – what they can do and what they can’t do. It will explore how to program so that a student can build new applications of interest in a scientific field. The course will include a project, designed by the student, of use in her/his major. Previous experience in computing is not required, but it is expected that the student will have good logic and analysis skills. Preference will be given to first- and second-year students –- upperclass students only by permission of the instructor. This course can be used as a prerequisite for CSCI121 or BINF101. It carries Formal Analysis credit. Staff/Offered periodically
