This course is an advanced course on the fundamentals of test and measurement. This course will focus on discussion the main principles of testing and assessment, psychometric issues, construction and use of testing and assessment in the field of psychological counseling. Topics to be discussed include the construction of norm testing, item analysis, reliability and validity of the test, factor analysis and test construction process and assessment of data for evaluation and diagnosis. This course will discuss various types of tests and assessments used by professionals in the field of counseling psychology in particular by focusing on ethics, compliance and construction norms in every aspect of behavior that are measured and assessed.

This course is designed to introduce programming techniques and problem solving methods to computing students using a specific programming language. Emphasis is placed on the fundamentals of computer programming such as data types, variables, selection structures (if/else), looping structures (while), code modularity (methods), arrays as well as the mechanics of program running, testing, and debugging. In addition, the knowledge of a computer language is gained by learning its syntax and standard coding conventions. The course also focused on the traditional structured (procedural) approach as opposed to the object oriented approach. The class uses regular practical lab exercises that emphasize on the problem solving techniques described during the lectures.

This course continues the development of programming and problem-solving skills, focusing on object-oriented programming and improved programming practices. Topics include: an introduction to the object oriented concept, encapsulation and information hiding, proper program and user defined class design, inheritance, polymorphism, abstract classes, interfaces, exception handling, reading & writing to files, creating graphical user interfaces(GUI) and using list data structures.

This course is considered as one of the important courses for the preparation of graduates who are capable to write innovative program solutions using a computer programming language. The course introduces students to data structures and algorithms, graph, recursion, trees, searching, sorting and hashing. Students will be exposed to the calculation of run time performance using Big-Oh notations.
