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. |
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. |
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) | To develop an interest in the human mind and behavior, to be able to evaluate theories using empirical findings, to understand that psychology is an evidence-based science by acquiring critical thinking skills. | |
2) | To gain a biopsychosocial perspective on human behavior. To understand the biological, psychological, and social variables of behavior. | |
3) | To learn the basic concepts in psychology and the theoretical and practical approaches used to study them (e.g. basic observation and interview techniques). | |
4) | To acquire the methods and skills to access and write information using English as the dominant language in the psychological literature, to recognize and apply scientific research and data evaluation techniques (e.g. correlational, experimental, cross-sectional and longitudinal studies, case studies). | |
5) | To be against discrimination and prejudice; to have ethical concerns while working in research and practice areas. | |
6) | To recognize the main subfields of psychology (experimental, developmental, clinical, cognitive, social and industrial/organizational psychology) and their related fields of study and specialization. | |
7) | To acquire the skills necessary for analyzing, interpreting and presenting the findings as well as problem posing, hypothesizing and data collection, which are the basic elements of scientific studies. | |
8) | To gain the basic knowledge and skills necessary for psychological assessment and evaluation. | |
9) | To acquire basic knowledge of other disciplines (medicine, genetics, biology, economics, sociology, political science, communication, philosophy, anthropology, literature, law, art, etc.) that will contribute to psychology and to use this knowledge in the understanding and interpretation of psychological processes. | |
10) | To develop sensitivity towards social problems; to take responsibility in activities that benefit the field of psychology and society. | |
11) | To have problem solving skills and to be able to develop the necessary analytical approaches for this. | |
12) | To be able to criticize any subject in business and academic life and to be able to express their thoughts. |
