NOTICE: This course outline indicates a rough guide to where we are headed. However, additions, subtractions and reorganization of course content is likely. You will be informed of any changes during class meetings.  In addition, you should revisit this page routinely. It may be updated throughout the semester.

It should go without saying that this outline, along with the rest of this site, is not a substitute for class attendance and participation.  As stated numerous times on this site: this is not an online course. You cannot pass this course by relying simply on content provided on this site.  Project descriptions on this site will, more often than not, lack specific technical and conceptual parameters. They should be treated as a resource to accompany in-class lecture, discussion and project descriptions.
