Overview

The purpose of this course is to give undergraduate students an opportunity to demonstrate what they have learned during their studies, and is completed as the last course in the UNCG B.S. in Computer Science curriculum (possibly taken concurrently with other last-semester classes). Students will work in teams to design and develop a working software product, and will demonstrate the ability to analyze design decisions and consider trade-offs of competing solutions. This course is both speaking intensive and writing intensive, with teams making regular presentations (including weekly status reports), and submitting written reports. The course culminates in public group presentations and a poster presentation for members of the department’s Industry Advisory Board.
