Relevant Coursework

Data Structures

CS 314

This is a second course in computer programming. The purpose of the course is to learn how to use and implement canonical data structures such as lists, iterators, stacks, queues, priority queues, trees, binary search trees, balanced binary search trees, sets, maps, hash tables, heaps, tries, and graphs. The course also covers testing, reasoning about programs (pre/post conditions, assertions), debugging, abstraction of data, basic algorithm analysis, recursion, canonical sorting and searching algorithms, an introduction to the object oriented concepts of encapsulation, inheritance, and polymorphism, dynamic programming, and functional programming in Java.

Discrete Math

CS 311

This course discusses discrete mathematics, the part of mathematics devoted to the study of distinct or unconnected elements. Discrete mathematics provides the mathematical foundations for many computer science classes, including data structures, algorithms, database theory, automata theory, formal languages, compilers, security and operating systems.

Intro to Computing

BME 303

Introduction to computing and programming, focusing on high-level programming languages. Emphasis on programming skills using C++ and Python as well as data acquisition using open-source computer hardware. Emphasis is on biomedical engineering applications for computing. Three lecture hours and two recitation hours a week for one semester.

AP Computer Science Principles

High School

An introductory college-level computing course that introduces students to the breadth of the field of computer science. Students learn to design and evaluate solutions and to apply computer science to solve problems through the development of algorithms and programs. They incorporate abstraction into programs and use data to discover new knowledge. Students also explain how computing innovations and computing systems—including the internet—work, explore their potential impacts, and contribute to a computing culture that is collaborative and ethical.

Sequences, Series, & Multivariable Calculus

M 408D

The theory and applications of sequences and infinite series, including those involving functions of one variable, and an introduction to the theory and applications of differential and integral calculus of functions of several variables; subjects include methods of integration, parametric equations, sequences, infinite series, power series, functions of several variables, partial derivatives, and multiple integrals. Three lecture hours and two discussion hours a week for one semester.

Integral Calculus

M 408L

Introduction to the theory and applications of integral calculus of functions of one variable; topics include integration, the fundamental theorem of calculus, transcendental functions, sequences, and infinite series. Three lecture hours and two discussion hours a week for one semester.

Differential Calculus

M 408K

Introduction to the theory and applications of differential calculus of functions of one variable; topics include limits, continuity, differentiation, and the mean value theorem and its applications. Three lecture hours and two discussion hours a week for one semester.

Engineering Physics I

PHY 303K

A general survey of physics; primarily laws of motion, heat, and wave phenomena. Three lecture hours and one discussion hour a week for one semester.

Physics Lab

Principles of Chemistry II

CH 302

Development and application of concepts, theories, and laws underlying chemistry. Three lecture hours a week for one semester and one enrichment/discussion hour a week.

Principles of Chemistry I

CH 301

An introduction to chemistry. Includes gases, atomic theory, bonding, and thermodynamics. Three lecture hours a week for one semester and one enrichment/discussion hour a week.

Intro to Chemical Practice

CH 204

Introduction to the techniques of modern experimental chemistry. Designed to provide basic laboratory and analytical skills. May include organic, analytical, and physical chemistry, as well as materials science. Four laboratory hours and one hour of discussion a week for one semester. Some sections may also require one hour of computer laboratory a week.

Intro to BME Design

BME 303L

Biomedical engineering design concepts with hands-on learning applications. Three lecture hours and three laboratory hours a week for one semester.

Organizations

Association of Black Computer Scientists

Accociate Corporate Officer

The organization works to build and empower members of Texas Computer Science and the broader Black community to pursue technology related education and careers. We hope to inspire and equip the next diverse generation of thoughtful technologists.

ASO Dance - Ubuntu

Public Relations Chair

The official dance team for the Africa Student Organization at The University of Texas.

National Society of Black Engineers

Freshman Action Team

The mission of the National Society of Black Engineers is “to increase the number of culturally responsible Black Engineers who excel academically, succeed professionally and positively impact the community.”

IEEE Computer Society

Member

The IEEE Computer Society at The University of Texas at Austin works to connect students who are highly interested in the field of computer engineering with companies who can provide insight to this industry. IEEE CS finds it extremely important that students be exposed to real world engineering projects, and assisting them in this endeavour is an essential part of what we do.

Heman Sweatt

Member

The Heman Sweatt Center for Black Males (Sweatt Center) is a faculty-led academic initiative rooted in evidence-based practices to promote academic excellence among African American males. The Sweatt Center includes a research focus that informs public policy experts, practitioners, and concerned citizens on how best to create and maintain a culture of Black male excellence in K-16 settings. This research guides a hands-on practical approach to help the Sweatt Center achieve its major goals: to increase the four-year graduation rate for African American males at The University of Texas at Austin and to increase the number of Black males attending four-year colleges and universities across the state of Texas.

African Student Organization

Ambassador

ASO is dedicated to form links between African Students on the UT campus and the Austin community at large. Although we strive to create a medium for African students to socialize and interact, ASO is open to students of all backgrounds. We aim to encourage and enhance awareness about African issues, culture and values. We are committed to advocate the rights of African students on the UT campus.
