(AS Degree) Students work with faculty to develop and complete a semester project for presentation. Assignments include identifying and clearly stating a problem; writing a proposal on alternative ways to tackle the problem; estimating the time and materials needed to solve the problem; outlining a step-by-step procedure that can be used to solve the problem; writing the algorithms needed to solve the problem; proving the problem has been solved (or is impossible to solve); and testing the efficiency of the algorithm using inductive arguments. A final oral presentation will be required.
