The Advanced Topics Computer Science course is comparable to those in the introductory course for computer science majors offered in college and university computer science departments. It is not expected, however, that all students in the Advanced Computer Science course will major in computer science at the university level. This course is intended to serve both as an introductory course for computer science majors and as a course for people who will major in other disciplines that require significant involvement with technology.
