CIS 2600 - Object-Oriented Programming for Business

This course is an introduction to basic concepts in computer programming with an emphasis on business applications. In the course, students learn the fundamentals of the object-oriented programming paradigm, programming structures, and develop skills to provide business solutions by using object-oriented programming. The object-oriented approach to application development is in high demand as it allows for improved re-usability, maintenance, and security of business applications. Major topics covered in this course include data structures, methods, objects, classes, decision, and control flow structures. This course also introduces advanced data types (e.g., strings, arrays), inheritance property, exception handling, and file input-output for object-oriented applications. Upon completion of this course, students will develop both console-based and graphical user interface-based business applications using an object-oriented programming language.
