We will be offering the following swing-level courses in the Summer:

We are also offering sections of some of the program prerequisites. If you are required to take any of these courses, summer is an excellent time to do so!

We will be offering the following graduate courses in the Fall:

If you have been admitted provisionally, you may also need to take one or more undergraduate/foundation courses. The following relevant undergraduate and foundation courses are offered this semester:

COURSE	TIME	INSTRUCTOR	CRN
CSCI 6901: Foundations of Programming	M W 5:10 - 6:25	Dr. Yong Zhang	43554
CSIS 3722: Development of Databases	M W F 2:00 - 2:50 T Th 5:10 - 6:25	Prof. Virginia Phillips	42815 42816
CSIS 3723: Networking Concepts and Administration	M W F 1:00 - 1:50 M W 8:00 - 9:15 PM	Dr. Graciela Perara	42817 42818

You first must consult with your advisor to determine the schedule that best meets your needs.

In addition, the best way to get more information about any of these courses is to contact the instructor of that course. They can give you far more detailed information on the topics each course will cover. However, here is some very basic information:

• CSCI 6920: Theory and Practice of Information Systems
  CSCI 6950: Advanced Database Design and Administration
  These are the core courses in information systems and databases, required for all students in the program. While we intend to offer them once a year, you should consider taking this course now if possible.
  
  
• CSCI 6961: Client-Side Web Development and Programming
  CSCI 6962: Server-Side Web Development and Programming
  These are electives that we offer once a year. If you have an interest in web development, you should consider these courses.
  
  
• CSCI 5895: Special Topics (Information Assurance)
  This is special topics course related to network security. If you have an interest in networking or security, you should strongly consider it.
  
  
• CSCI 5895: Special Topics (Game Design and Programming)
  CSCI 5895: Special Topics (Artificial Intelligence in Game Design) CSCI 5895: Special Topics (Information Assurance)
  These are special topics that may eventually become courses taught every year or every two years. Since they may not be taught again soon, if you have an interest in game development, you should consider taking them now.
  
  
• CSIS 5883: Remote Access and Multilayer Switched Networks
  This is an upper level course in Cisco networking, generally offered once a year. If you have an interest in networking, and the required Cisco background, you should consider taking this course.
