During our curriculum revision, we decided to create our own version, covering the same topics as the Purdue course but aligning them more closely with the rest of our coursework. In the past, these students took a required MATLAB course at IUPUI. It also helped us achieve a major goal of our curriculum revision: to integrate programming into many more courses, including Linear Algebra, Calculus 3, and Numerical Methods.ĬMP 150 also helped the Franklin College undergraduates enrolled in our dual-degree engineering program with the Purdue University School of Engineering and Technology at Indianapolis, which requires three years at Franklin College and a further two years at Indiana University – Purdue University – Indianapolis (IUPUI).

Many of these recent graduates noted that, while they don't write software in C++, they often need to write quick, functional blocks of code to solve a problem or perform an analysis that would be difficult to do using a spreadsheet.Īdding CMP 150 to our mathematics curriculum enabled us to respond to the feedback we received from Franklin College graduates. Several former students told us that they would have benefited from more applicable programming experience.
CMP 150 was created to provide students with programming experience in their first year and to enable them to fulfill a requirement of our dual-degree engineering program.įor many years, mathematics majors at Franklin College were required to take an introductory C++ programming course.
