WBIT 2311 - Programming andProblemSolving II (3-0-3)
The emphasis of this course is on advanced programming techniques in Java
including GUI's, software reuse through component libraries, recursion, event-driven
programming, database processing, file processing, and exception handling. Students
are able to create event-driven, graphical programs or text-based programs solving
practical problems incorporating databases and external files.
Prerequisite(s):WBIT 1310 (C),WBIT 2300 (C).
WBIT 3010 - Technical Communication (3-0-3)
This course covers workplace communication at the intermediate level. Topics include
audience analysis, research proposal and report writing, document and visual design,
editing and presentation design.
Prerequisite(s): ENGL 1102 (C).
WBIT 3110 - Systems Analysis andDesign (3-0-3)
This course introduces the fundamental principles of the design and analysis of IT
applications. In this course, students will learn to apply the tools and techniques
commonly used by systems analysts to build and document IT applications. Classical
and structured tools for describing data flow, data structure, process flow, file design,
input and output design, and program specification will be studied, as will object-
oriented techniques.
Prerequisites: WBIT 1310 (C) Programming and Problem Solving I, WBIT 2000 The
Enterpriseand IT (C).
WBIT 3111 - InformationTechnologyProject Management (3-0-3)
Project management techniques and tools as applied to information systems projects
including resource and personnel management and allocation, product testing,
scheduling, and project management software. Students will study examples of both
successful and unsuccessful projects and apply lessons learned to a class project.
Prerequisite(s):WBIT 3110 (C),WBIT 3010 (C), MATH 1231 (C).
WBIT 3200 - DatabaseDesign, Development andDeployment (3-0-3)
An advanced course in database design, development and deployment. Course
emphasizes database design drawing distinctions between data modeling and
process modeling using various modeling techniques including Entity-Relationship
Modeling, Object Modeling andData FlowDiagramming; database development using
the relational model, normalization, and SQL; database deployment including control
mechanisms, forms, reports, menus and web interfaces. Additional topics include
procedures, functions, packages and triggers. Students will design, create and
process a database to demonstrate competency in the course content. Note: If a
student is takingWBIT 2311 as a co-requisite and subsequently withdraws fromWBIT
2311, the student must alsowithdraw fromWBIT 3200.
Prerequisite(s):WBIT 1310 (C).
Preor Co-requisite:WBIT 2311 (C).

This course covers the basic design principles and tools for creating and editing digital
media elements. Examples of these elements include graphics, animation, audio,
video, virtual space and simulation.
Prerequisites:WBIT 1100 (C).
WBIT 3410 -WebApplicationsDevelopment (3-0-3)
The course provides a survey of techniques and tools for developing basic web pages
for delivery of text and graphic information; focus on page markup languages, client-
side scripting, page design principles, page layout techniques, markup language
syntax, and page stylingmethods.
Prerequisite(s):WBIT 1310 (C).
