- be globally competitive through
- living by the TIP mission values, pursuing continuing education, and practicing continuous quality improvement in their personal lives;
- continuously scanning, adopting, and building on the best practices in their field.
STUDENT OUTCOMES
By the time of graduation, students will be able to:
a. apply knowledge of computing, science, and mathematics appropriate to the discipline;
b. analyze a complex problem and identify and define the computing requirements appropriate to its solution;
c. design, implement, and evaluate a computer based system, process,
component, or program to meet desired needs with appropriate constraints
for public health and safety, cultural, societal, and environmental
considerations;
d. use modern techniques, skills, and tools of computing practice in complex computing activities;
e. function effectively as an individual and as a member or leader in diverse teams and in multi-disciplinary settings;
f. communicate effectively about complex computing activities with
various communities, such as computing experts and society at large,
using appropriate levels of discourse;
g. analyze the local and global impact of computing on individuals, organizations, and society;
h. understand professional, ethical, legal, security, and social issues
and responsibilities relevant to professional computing practice;
i. recognize the need for, and have the ability to engage in continuous professional development and lifelong learning;
j. apply mathematical foundations, algorithmic principles, and computer
science theory in the modelling and design of computer-based systems in a
way to demonstrate comprehension of the tradeoffs involved in design
choices;
k. apply design and development principles in the construction of software systems of varying complexity.
Effective S.Y. 2018-2019, the following Student Outcomes of the Computer Science Program will apply:
1. Analyze a complex computing problem and apply principles of computing and other relevant disciplines to identify solutions
2. Design, implement, and evaluate a computing-based solution to meet a
given set of computing requirements in the context of the program’s
discipline
3. Communicate effectively in a variety of professional contexts
4. Recognize professional responsibilities and make informed judgments
in computing practice based on legal and ethical principles
5. Function effectively as a member or leader of a team engaged in activities appropriate to the program’s discipline
6. Apply computer science theory and software development fundamentals to produce computing-based solutions
