1. Analyze a complex computing problem and apply principles of computing and other relevant disciplines to identify solutions. (Computing student learning outcome 1.1)
2. Design, implement, and evaluate a computing-based solution to meet a given set of computing requirements in the context of the program’s discipline. (Computing student learning outcome 2)
3. Communicate effectively in a variety of professional contexts. (Computing student learning outcome 3)
4. Function effectively as a member or leader of a team engaged in activities appropriate to the program’s discipline. (Computing student learning outcome 5)

Integration
