CMPT Upper Course Recommendations

edited November 2014 in General
Any recommendations for some easy-medium CMPT upper courses?

  • While these are not all necessarily 'good' courses, 320, 354, 363, 470, and 475 are some I would consider easy-medium. Maybe 474? I haven't taken it but the fact that it is a web course and reading through some of the material makes it sound like a cool medium course.

    There are some other CMPT courses that vary between easy medium and medium hard based on who is teaching them. As well as some others that are easy-medium based on your interest and experience. There are also some other easy medium ones too that are required that I didn't bother listing.
  • out of all of ryan's recommendations, only 354 is still open with 3 seats left.

    i also wanted to take 320 since it's a science-based upper division elective, but it filled up really quickly =/

    470 with greg baker. yeah its called web-based info systems not very descriptive. what you'll actually do is form a group, pick a web dev framework, and build whatever u want. in lectures youll cover alot of web dev concepts like html/css, js, security, architecture... the list goes on. Youll have to give a presentation on the framework you choose but so does everyone else so you get good exposure to them all. gregs a great prof and gives you assignments each week on each topic and after you do them, trust, you just "get" what its all about.
    Super applicable to work. I started coop this semester at one of the big 4s  and geeeeeeeeeeeezeeeeee if i didnt take 470 id be so lost.
    ez or hard is up to you, no final but cmon man just think of the worth. btw take a a look at these goodies


    + a meaty project always looks good on ur resume if ur into that
