Courses
Faith & Culture: World Religions
This course engages students in the examination of world religions, particularly Judaism, Christianity,
Islam and the First Nations, Métis and Inuit Spiritualities and a locally appropriate religious tradition.
This is a survey course that will help students understand the basic similarities and differences between
the religious traditions so they can interact with others with acceptance and familiarity. We live in a
multi-faith global community. With the knowledge of this course, students ought to be able to understand
more clearly the world’s religious affairs.
CS1010X - Programming Methodology (AY2019/2020, Sem2)
This module introduces the fundamental concepts of problem solving by computing and programming using an imperative programming language. It is the first and foremost introductory course to computing and is equivalent to CS1010 and CS1010E Programming Methodology. Topics covered include problem solving by computing, writing pseudo-codes, basic problem formulation and problem solving, program development, coding, testing and debugging, fundamental programming constructs (variables, types, expressions, assignments, functions, control structures, etc.), fundamental data structures: arrays, strings and structures, simple file processing, and basic recursion.

Topics covered include problem solving by computing, writing pseudo-codes, basic problem formulation and problem solving, program development, coding, testing and debugging, fundamental programming constructs (variables, types, expressions, assignments, functions, control structures, etc.), fundamental data structures: arrays, strings and structures, simple file processing, and basic recursion. This module is appropriate for FoS students.
IT5001 Software Development Fundamentals (AY2019/20 Sem 2 Jan-Mar)
This module aims to introduce non-computing students to the principles
and concepts of software development at an accelerated pace. Students will be introduced to the basics of
programming (control flow, code and data abstraction, recursion, types, OO),
development methodology (ensuring correctness, testing, debugging), simple data
structures and algorithms (lists, maps, sorting), and software engineering
principles. Through hands on assignments and projects, students will learn good
software development practices (documentation, style) and experience a typical
software engineering cycle.

CS3244 - Machine Learning (AY 19/20 Sem I)
This module introduces basic concepts and algorithms in machine learning and neural networks. The main reason for studying computational learning is to make better use of powerful computers to learn knowledge (or regularities) from the raw data. The ultimate objective is to build self-learning systems to relieve human from some of already-too-many programming tasks. At the end of the course, students are expected to be familiar with the theories and paradigms of computational learning, and capable of implementing basic learning systems.
