Suitable for students in High School (Grades 9-12)
A full-year honors-level course in programming and computer science, College Programming, and Computer Science prepares students for college studies in computer science and related disciplines. This course re-examines earlier topics (functions, conditionals, loops, strings, lists, and more) in greater detail and with increased rigor.
The course also covers intermediate data structures (sets, dictionaries), recursion, object-oriented programming, exceptions, monte carlo methods, cloud computing, efficiency, limits of computation, style, and top-down design, among other topics.
The course culminates in a significant creative project and an optional $200 final exam. Upon passing the exam, students receive 12 Carnegie Mellon University transcripted credits - equivalent to 4 course credits at other universities that accept CMU credits.
Learn Python: The Foundational Programming Language for AI!
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is how Google search, Alexa, Siri, auto-correct, speech translation, face recognition, self-driving cars, etc. learn from data and humans. Get your student an edge in school, competitions and preparation for college and careers by learning Python!
AIClub is thrilled to work with Carnegie Mellon University to provide High School and advanced Middle School students an opportunity to learn the programming language at the heart of AI software, develop rigorous programming, computer science and problem solving skills, and earn valuable college credits in the process.
