Abstract
The Senior Seminar is the culmination of the Computer Science major′s experience in the department. In this class, we will work together to solve a research question and contribute to the field of computer science.
Your research problem was written and defined last semester as part of last semester’s Senior Seminar.
One of primary goals of this seminar is to expose you to state-of-the-art research in computer science. It also aims at developing a deeper understanding of the software design-process: detailing a well-defined problem, proposing and implementing a solution, and testing that solution. You should gain an appreciation of what it is like to work with other people to solve a larger problem.
Senior Seminar is an integrative course. It draws on all of the courses that you have had so far, including both general education and major courses.
Senior Seminar is a seminar. We each come to each class prepared to contribute what we have learned. Each individual will provide an update of what they have been working on and what they intend to do for the next week.
You will be expected to work together as a group outside of this class time and come up with ways of solving problems on your own. Each project should be updated using version control software.
At the end of the semester, you will present your work at Senior Research Day.
