Type and level of studies: Undergraduate applied studies
Subject: PROGRAMMING
Status: compulsory
ECTS credits: 9
Course objective
The objective of the course is mastering the fundamental principles of programming, which comprise the necessary foundation for any further programming and design. This course has been conceived as a gateway into the world of programming, and it introduces the student with the basic elements of programming languages, their syntax, data types and control structures.
Learning to work independently in the language C, learning about its syntax and possibilities. Learning the skill of writing efficient and readable programs, as well as analyzing existing programs. Understanding the basic programming techniques and concepts.
Course outcome
Upon the completion of this course, the student has adopted the habits of programming thinking, become competent for independent work in C and mastered the basic programming techniques. The student has thereby met the requirements for further studying of programming tools and languages.
