Course Categories:
Introductory
Introductory courses require no prerequisites. However, overall interest, general background (computing, graphics, math applications), and, possibly, a prior short course or ?survey? may be beneficial.
Intermediate
In mid-level courses, students should have a significant working knowledge of the area attained through introductory courses, reading, and practical experience. These courses often organize existing knowledge into a coherent whole, supplying a model or other structure for the discipline. They also supply substantial technical content and depth. Most courses cover many specific topics in detail, such as algorithms, techniques, and architectures.
Advanced
Advanced courses generally consider a narrow topic in substantial technical depth. The attendee should be well- informed in the general topic area through previous courses, reading, and significant years? computer graphics experience. Advanced courses generally require inter- mediate courses and other advanced courses as prerequisites.
