CSC 240 - Object-Oriented Programming, 3 credit hours

Prerequisite(s): CSC 210
Prerequisite/Corequisite: MTH 161

This three credit course builds on the introductory programming concepts presented in Computer Science I by introducing students to the object-oriented programming paradigm. Topics include abstraction, encapsulation, inheritance, polymorphism, object-oriented design and, as time permits, use of advanced language features such as generics, packages and interfaces. Students implement several applications of varying complexity in a current object-oriented programming language (currently Java).
