Course Objectives:	The purpose of this course is to introduce students the advanced programming concepts supported by the C# programming language. The course is divided into two parts: Lectures and Labs. During these lectures and lab hours, the programming information is implemented with .net platform. Students are expected to be able to design and develop several advanced C# homework and projects. This course includes advanced object oriented programming concepts with C#, classes, inheritance, and polymorphism, essential C #objects for data structures, exception handling and creating interfaces using the .net platform.

Learning Outcomes

The students who have succeeded in this course;
1. Define the object-oriented design principles in programming
2. Develop object-oriented programs using C# classes and objects
3. Identify the fundamentals of graphical user interface with C#
4. Define exceptions and develop programs with exception handling
5. Uses one or more timers at the same time
6. Coordinates multiple forms

Course Content

The course content is composed of .NET Framework, an object oriented programming overview, collections, interfaces,
exceptions, file operations, Windows applications, Windows forms, form controls (Label, Textbox, Listbox, Checkbox,
Groupbox, Picturebox, etc.), multi-forms, dynamic controls (Panels, Events, EventHandlers), designing own user controls,
inheritance, abstract classes, interfaces, operator overloading.
