Computer Information Systems Curriculum Outline

The CIS program provides students with an educational program that ensures the ability of its graduates to

handle current and future needs of the society. The CIS curriculum emphasizes on three aspects. First,

courses in basic sciences such as mathematics, physics, and biology that enable students to develop the

necessary analytical abilities and learn the underlying scientific principles. This aspect is complemented by

subjects in humanities. Second, courses in information systems cover the basic background in IT as well as

allow students to emphasize on certain information system disciplines through the choice of electives such

as Data Mining, Decision Support Systems and so on. Third, courses in Computer Sciences, Networking

and Engineering provide exposure to programming and problem-solving abilities, design and

implementation of digital hardware systems, digital communication, and computer networks.

The BS curriculum in Computer Information Systems is structured into 121 credit-hours spanning over a

period of four academic years (excluding the preparatory year, in which students are introduced to basic IT

skills, Science, Mathematics and English language skills).

Imam Abdulrahman Bin Faisal University has a clear academic structure to support the curriculum design,

based on levels. The levels’ structure also establishes the basis upon which each student’s achievement can

be measured and upon which progression through the program can be approved. Typically, a level

represents a semester of study. A study level is the indicator of the stage within the programs study plan.

The CIS program comprises of eight levels, and is delivered in a semester system.

Each academic year consists of two main semesters of 18 weeks and a summer semester of almost nine

weeks duration. The periods of registration and final examination are not considered part of the period

which defines a semester.

Courses in the CIS curriculum are divided into four main categories: University Requirement, College

Requirement, Specialized Core Requirement and Electives. The courses in each of these categories, their

Course Descriptions

Credit-hour: is a measure of amount of effort required to achieve the intended learning outcomes as

verified by the evidence of student’s achievement. The majority of courses at CCSIT are worth either 2 or

3 credits.

Prerequisites: are solely determined by the course content dependency. The prerequisite of a course could

be one or more courses and are listed in this section.

The course codes of the prerequisite courses needed to register for this course are listed in here. Courses in

the CIS curriculum are grouped into four major course tracks namely, University Requirement, College

Requirement, Specialized Core Courses and Electives as mentioned earlier.

The next section is the course description that describes both the course contents and course objectives

comprehensively. The course outcomes describe what a student must be able to do after completion of the

course. Outcomes are measurable and mapped to one or more student outcomes. These student outcomes

are listed in square brackets and should be between ‘A’ to ‘J’ which are the student outcomes described

earlier for the CIS program.

The assessment policy section lists out the key assessment components of the course and the percentage

of grade that assessment contributes to the overall grade of the student. The textbook and references

section lists the main text and reference books that will be used in the course.

670237 – CS 211 Prerequisite 4 Level

Course Description

This is an entry level programming course designed to teach students the basics of program design,

coding and testing. The course begins by covering the basics of a high-level programming language

that include declaration of scalar variables and constants of basic data types. This is followed by a

discussion on including various control structures into user programs. These include sequence,

selection, and repetition control structures. Later, the course covers designing and implementing

programs that rely on user-defined functions with a focus on passing arguments to these functions.

Towards the end, the course introduces the concept of arrays and pointers. The course concludes by

providing an overview and comparison of the Object Oriented Programming (OOP) model with the

procedural approach.

In the lab portion of the course, the students get a chance to practice their programming skills using a

high-level programming language. The students are also introduced to fundamental steps including

compiling, linking, executing, and debugging their programs.

Course Description

The purpose of this course is to provide students with fundamental knowledge of object oriented

programming (OOP). It emphasizes good software engineering principles and developing

programming skills. Specific topics covered include: fundamental concepts of object oriented

programming (classes, methods, instantiation, communication by message, encapsulation, inheritance,

overriding, dynamic dispatch, polymorphism, etc.) and some interesting packages (I/O, strings, etc.).

As an OOP programmer, a student will be able to translate solution problem into object oriented form.

He/she should acquire some understanding of object oriented concepts and tools such as the Unified

Modeling Language (UML). This will give the student a firm foundation on which he/she can build

high-quality software systems. In practice, the programming language used is JAVA, as an introduction

to JAVA language. Students should acquire some understanding of abstraction mechanisms,

enumeration, JAVA Virtual Machines (JVM) and the byte code notion.

2. Students demonstrate the abilities to write reusable software components.

3. Students demonstrate the abilities to formulate and decompose a problem into appropriate

components.

4. Students exhibit the abilities to use different systems development methodologies, techniques,

and skills for computing practice.

5. Students demonstrate the abilities to develop a computer-based solution.



1. Describe the importance and power of abstraction in the context of virtual machines.

2. Explain the benefits of intermediate languages in the compilation process.

3. Justify the philosophy of object-oriented design and the concepts of encapsulation, inheritance

and polymorphism.

Course Description

This course emphasizes on the principal concepts of Database Management Systems (DBMS). The

DBMS concepts include: Storing data: disks and files which include the memory hierarchy, RAID,

disk space management, buffer management, file and indexes, page formats and record formats; file

organization and indexes which introduce cost modeling, comparison of three file organizations,

overview of indexes and properties of indexes. Three-structured indexing, hash based indexing and

database design security; transaction management which introduce to transactions and schedules,

concurrent execution of transaction, lock-based concurrency control and crash recovery. Crash

recovery includes introduction to ARIES, recovery from a system crash and media recovery. The

course also covers advanced topics such as: Parallel and distributed database including architectures

for parallel databases, parallel query evaluation and optimization, distributed DBMS architectures,

storing data in distributed DBMS, distributed catalog management and query processing, updating

distributed data, distributed transactions and concurrency and recovery. As part of this course, students

will be trained on some latest database management software.

criteria decision making and predictive modeling techniques such as neural networks. The

information technologies component will give students the opportunity to work with specialized

desktop decision support tools such DPL and Expert Choice (an analytic hierarchy process-based

DSS engine), Scikit-learn (an open source machine learning library), and OpenNN (an open source

class library which implements neural networks).
