CS-119(c): Information, Computation, CommunicationL'objectif de ce cours est d'introduire les étudiants à la pensée algorithmique, de les familiariser avec les fondamentaux de l'Informatique et de développer une première compétence en programmation (langage C++).
COM-402: Information security and privacyThis course provides an overview of information security and privacy topics. It introduces students to the knowledge and tools they will need to deal with the security/privacy challenges they are likely to encounter in today's Big Data world. The tools are illustrated with relevant applications.
CS-487: Industrial automationThis course consists of two parts:
- architecture of automation systems, hands-on lab
- handling of faults and failures in real-time systems, including fault-tolerant computing
COM-301: Computer securityThis is an introductory course to computer security and privacy. Its goal is to provide students with means to reason about security and privacy problems, and provide them with tools to confront them.
CS-305: Software engineeringThis course teaches the basics of modern software development: designing software, working in a team, writing good code, shipping software, and evolving software. It emphasizes building software that meets high standards of quality, reliability, security, and manageability.
CS-422: Database systemsThis course is intended for students who want to understand modern large-scale data analysis systems and database systems.
