CSE380:PROGRAMMING IN JAVA
L:0 T:0 P:4 Credits:2
Course Outcomes: Through this course students should be able to
CO1 :: evaluate the Java platform's ability to achieve platform independence and differentiate
between various Java platforms and their uses.
CO2 :: apply string manipulation, data formatting, and conditionals effectively in Java programs.
CO3 :: describe objects and classes, and demonstrate the use of methods, encapsulation,
inheritance, and polymorphism in Java.
CO4 :: analyze access levels, method overriding, and abstract classes to design robust Java
applications.
CO5 :: create modular Java programs by implementing interfaces, utilizing lambda expressions,
and effectively handling exceptions and assertions.
CO6 :: demonstrate I/O fundamentals and utilize collections and generics to manage data
efficiently in Java applications.
