Course Objectives:	This is an introductory course on common data structures that are used in software engineering. After completing the course, the student will have knowledge of applying, implementing and analysis of basic data structures, including, lists, stacks and queues. Certain fundamental techniques, such as sorting, searching and recursion are also taught.

Learning Outcomes

The students who have succeeded in this course;
1) Describe and apply basic object oriented programming principles.
2) Implement basic data structures such as linked lists, stacks and queues.
3) Analyze the complexity and efficiency of algorithms.
4) Choose and design data structures for writing efficient programs.
5) Implement recursive algorithms.
6) Describe and implement sorting algorithms on common data structures.
7) Describe and implement search algorithms on common data structures.

Course Content

The course content is composed of object oriented Java review, the complexity and efficiency of algorithms, introduction to list-stack-queue structures, implementing list-stack-queue structures, recursion, searching algorithms and sorting algorithms.

	Program Outcomes	Level of Contribution
1)	Build up a body of knowledge in mathematics and statistics, to use them, to understand how the mechanism of economy –both at micro and macro levels – works.	3
2)	Understand the common as well as distinctive characters of the markets, industries, market regulations and policies.	2
3)	Develop an awareness of different approaches to the economic events and why and how those approaches have been formed through the Economic History and understand the differences among those approaches by noticing at what extent they could explain the economic events.	1
4)	Analyze the interventions of politics to the economics and vice versa.	3
5)	Apply the economic analysis to everyday economic problems and evaluate the policy proposals for those problems by comparing opposite approaches.	2
6)	Understand current and new economic events and how the new approaches to the economics are formed and evaluating.	2
7)	Develop the communicative skills in order to explain the specific economic issues/events written, spoken and graphical form.	3
8)	Know how to formulate the economics problems and issues and define the solutions in a well-formed written form, which includes the hypothesis, literature, methodology and results / empirical evidence.	2
9)	Demonstrate the quantitative and qualitative capabilities and provide evidence for the hypotheses and economic arguments.	2
10)	Understand the information and changes related to the economy by using a foreign language and communicate with colleagues.	3
