Course Description
This course introduces the design and analysis of algorithms. Students examine topics including the use of big­-O notation to characterize an algorithm's running time, invariants as a way of specifying how an algorithm solves a problem, and alternative approaches to the design of algorithms for different kinds of problems, such as including divide­and­conquer, greedy methods, and dynamic programming. Students use a range of illustrative problems, such as sorting, string-matching, and several standard graph algorithms.

Computer Science Abroad

Today’s computer science majors are showing the way to a more equitable world by delivering applications and systems that stimulate growth, communication, and learning. Become a master at expecting the unexpected as you solve problems. Taking your studies abroad gives you the chance to test prediction models in Japan, use artificial intelligence to identify the cause of problems negatively affecting people's lives in Singapore, and design technology that is accessible and socially responsible in Sweden.
