Lecture 29 Notes
Question and Answer session

Where to go from here with computers?

This is a question that usually comes up, and here is my answer.

Now that you are about to finish this course, you may want to learn more about computers and computer applications. There are many alternatives to explore for more training and experience in computer-related topics. Below are some starting points.

  1. Computer Science Department (http://www.cs.ucdavis.edu/) at UCD offers further instruction in Computer Science. The courses available after ECS15 are
    • ECS10 - Basic Concepts of Computing (meant for non-CS majors, in Pascal),
    • ECS30 , Introduction to Programming and Problem-Solving (the first CS course for majors, now in C), and
    • (ECS167) , Databases in the Humanities and Sciences (non CS majors, taught by Prof. Walters).
  2. Information Technology (http://www.ucdavis.edu/IT/) on campus - has the self-paced learning lab in 1101 Hart Hall and offers mini-courses of 1-6 hours in length on a variety of topics, including computer applications like Excel and Word.
  3. University Extension - offers various computer classes at night, including computer applications and programming languages.
  4. Electrical and Computer Engineering Department (http://www.ece.ucdavis.edu/) at UCD offers a beginning course in ForTran course number E5 .

You can never know too much about computers! (you can quote me on that.)
