Course Information

Course Description

ISE 108 will provide students with an introduction to programming within the context of the visual arts. The course uses the Processing programming language, developed at the Media Lab of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Processing is a readily accessible language that allows students with no prior programming experience to very quickly develop interesting visual designs. The Processing language shares a structure with modern object-oriented languages (e.g., Java and C#), so students learn the fundamentals of programming without the complexities of those languages.

ISE 108 is the first programming course for students interested in the Information Systems major. It is also suitable as an introductory course for students considering the Computer Science major and those just interested in learning more about programming or visual design.
