[CSENews] Fwd: Possible summer TC electives for CSE students

[Teresa Isela VanderSloot]

*1) TC491 Special Topics : PHP/MySQL Web Application Development*

Credits: 3
Time: Tu Th 10:20-12:10 from 5/13/2013 - 6/27/2013

Description: This is a hands-on course where we will learn the ins and 
outs of the PHP server-side scripting language and MySQL, the relational 
database.  These two technologies are heavily used for developing web 
applications, for example Facebook was originally created using 
PHP/MySQL.  The ability to create using PHP/MySQL is in high demand in 
the job market.  Currently, companies cannot find enough people to fill 
positions.  This course will be taught assuming some knowledge of HTML, 
but will take an approach that will be accessible to both novice and 
expert programmers.

*2) TC458 Project Management*

Credits: 3
Time: Tu Th 3:00-4:50 from 5/13/2013 - 6/27/2013

Description: This course focuses on project management techniques for 
managing complicated and multidisciplinary media and information 
projects.  During the class, students will manage and work on actual 
projects with external clients for a hands-on learning experience. 
  Topics include: managing complicated and multidisciplinary projects; 
organizing projects into manageable elements, including scope, time, 
cost, quality, human resources, communication, risk, procurement, and 
integration; communicating with stakeholders; analyzing organizations; 
developing a budget; and identifying roles and responsibilities during 
the critical planning, deployment, and evaluation stages.

You  can probably enroll in TC491 with no problem.  For TC458, as 
non-majors, you  would need to fill out an override request at
