Discontinuance from biological science technician courses

School of Computer Science Courses

Each Carnegie Mellon course number begins with a two-digit prefix which designates the department offering the course (76-xxx courses are offered by the Department of English, etc.). Although each department maintains its own course numbering practices, typically the first digit after the prefix indicates the class level: xx-1xx courses are freshmen-level, xx-2xx courses are sophomore level, et...

Using Hands-On Visualizations to Teach Computer Science from Beginning Courses to Advanced Courses

We have developed visual and interactive tools to be used by instructors to teach computer science and by students to learn concepts in a visual and hands-on manner. We describe two such tools and their use in computer science courses, JAWAA for easy creation of animations and JFLAP for experimenting with different types of automata and grammars.

Material science lesson from the biological photosystem

Inspired by photosynthesis, artificial systems for a sustainable energy supply are being designed. Each sequential energy conversion process from light to biomass in natural photosynthesis is a valuable model for an energy collection, transport and conversion system. Notwithstanding the numerous lessons of nature that provide inspiration for new developments, the features of natural photosynthe...
