This course introduces students to object oriented programming concepts, and the benefits associated with object-oriented
programming. Students are introduced to the object-oriented programming language Java. They are taught the syntax and
semantics of the Java programming language and how to construct solutions to common programming problems using Java.
Students will also have the opportunity to apply their knowledge of Java by writing a programme that solves a problem of their
choosing as part of their semester project. Students are also taught how to use CRC and UML to document their applications’
design. (Prerequisites: CSC103 and MAT110 or equivalent)
