N-Tier Web Programming (4) F This course is designed to teach sound concepts in n-tier development of web applications using ASP.NET. Students will develop multiple applications using RAD and OOP techniques using the n-tier model. Skills mastered in this course will include: Use of C# and VB within the Microsoft .NET framework, ADO.NET, SQL Server, Oracle, DHTML, XML and layered application design. Prerequisite: CS 2350. CS 4800. Individual Projects and Research (1-4) 5m, F, Sp The purpose of this course is to permit Computer Science majors to develop an individual project, program, system, or research paper, with coordination and approval of a faculty mentor. The final grade and amount of credit awarded will be determined by the department, depending on the complexity of the upper division work performed. Note: Only 4 credit hours of either CS 4800 or CS 4890 can apply to a CS degree as an elective course, and only a maximum of 6 hours of both CS 4800 and CS 4890 may be taken to satisfy missing credits or to achieve full time academic status. Prerequisite: CS 2420. CS 4820. Compiler Design (4) F A study of compilers, grammars, finite-state and push down automata, scanning, parsing, error handling, semantic analysis and code generation. Prerequisite: CS 2420. CS 4830. Advanced Topics in Computer Science (1-4) F, Sp - Variable Title Advanced topics which are demanded by industry, are currently popular in this rapidly changing field, or which meet special needs of students in Computer Science will be offered. Individualized material will be taught on a one time basis as needed. Time and credit to be arranged. May be repeated. Prerequisite: Consent of instructor. CS 4890. Cooperative Work Experience (1-4) 5m, F, Sp The purpose of this course is to permit Computer Science majors who are currently working in a computer related job or internship to receive academic credit for their work, with coordination and approval of a faculty mentor and their supervisor. The amount of upper division credit awarded will be determined by the department, depending on the nature and quantity of work performed. Note: Only 4 credit hours of either CS 4800 or CS 4890 can apply to a CS degree as an elective course, and only a maximum of 6 hours of both CS 4800 and CS 4890 may be taken to satisfy missing credits or to achieve full time academic status. Prerequisite: CS 2420. CS 4899. Bachelor's Degree Assessment (0) F, Sp This course is to serve as an assessment tool whereby all BS/BA degree seeking students in the Computer Science Department demonstrate their learned knowledge in at least three areas of computer science. At present, this knowledge will be demonstrated through the use of Chi Tester exams administered through the Campus Testing Center. The course is taken during the last term prior to receiving the BS/BA degree. Prereq/Coreq: Successful completion of requirements for the Bachelor's Degree. CS 4920. Short Courses, Workshops, Institutes and Special Projects (1-4) F Consult the semester class schedule for the current offering under this number. The specific title and credit authorized will appear on the student transcript.

Also offered is a Graduate Institutional Certificate in Quality and Lean Manufacturing that prepares students to take the ASQ green belt certification exam or to go on in the MSETM program at Oklahoma State University Manufacturing Engineering Technology Location: Engineering Technology Building, Room 214 Telephone Contact: Pat DeJong 801-626-6305 Email: mfet@weber.edu Advisors: Mark Baugh, George Comber, Andy Drake, Kelly Harward, Rick Orr, Kerry Tobin I he Weber State Manufacturing Engineering Technology program has been recognized as one of the outstanding manufacturing technology programs in the country. Students may choose among three emphasis areas within the Manufacturing Engineering Technology Program; Production Operations and Control, Welding, or Plastics and Composites. The Production Operations and Control emphasis area is designed to prepare the student for professional employment in industry by giving them fundamental knowledge and skills in a broad range of manufacturing disciplines and processes. These include process planning, tool and machine design, material selection and treatment, process automation, manufacturing resource planning, Six Sigma methods and tools in manufacturing, and lean manufacturing. State-of-the-art laboratories give the students hands-on experiences with CNC machine tools, robotics, programmable logic controllers, systems integration and the latest in a variety of CAD/ CAM systems. Year-long required senior projects have included satellites, hybrid electric vehicles and computer integrated manufacturing cells and others which help students gain confidence in their abilities while gaining additional insight and skills in both teamwork and human relations. The Manufacturing Engineering Technology with Welding Emphasis is designed to produce welding engineering technology graduates that are involved in the concept, design, engineering, and metallurgy of weldments and implementation of welding processes in any manufacturing or technical industry. The program has six main areas of study: welding and manufacturing, design and structural, metallurgical, quality assurance, electrical, and management. The courses are designed to give students, the background to solve welding related issues in a variety of industry settings. Students will leam how to set up welding quality systems with procedures Weber State University 2011 -2012 Catalog
