COSC 698 APPLIED RESEARCH IN COMPUTER SCIENCE
Prerequisites: A minimum of 27 Graduate Credits in COSC
Credits: 3
This course requires the student to perform research in computer
science somewhat less in scope than a master's thesis. Such research
should adequately demonstrate the student's proficiency in the subject
material. The research must be applied in a semester-long project and
concluded with a short seminar and a comprehensive paper.
COSC 719 IMAGE PROCESSING I
Prerequisites: COSC 599
Credits: 3
This course is an introduction to Computer Vision and Image Processing
fundamentals, human visual system, image resolution, binary images,
gray scale images, multispectral images, digital image formats,
preprocessing, image algebra, spatial filters, image enhancement, edge
detection, segmentation, feature extraction etc. Additional topics
include discrete transforms and image compression techniques.
COSC 729 VIRTUAL REALITY AND ITS APPLICATIONS
Prerequisites: COSC 599
Credits: 3
The goal of this course is to introduce students to Virtual Reality (VR)
hardware, software, and provide an opportunity for them to apply this
knowledge to applications for education and games. This course applies
cutting-edge virtual reality technology currently available in academia
and industry. Students will design, model, and script the VR
environment by developing a complete VR application as a group
project.
COSC 735 ADVANCED WIRELESS SECURITY
Prerequisites: COSC 599
Credits: 3
This course covers wireless networking security at the graduate level.
Students will achieve a solid understanding of wireless networking,
security issues in wireless networks and how to mitigate the associated
risks. At the completion of the course, students will have a thorough
understanding of how to better secure various networks such as, ad hoc
wireless networks, sensor networks and mobile wireless networks.
