PROPOSAL TO INTRODUCE A NEW COURSE 

1.	COURSE DETAILS

1.1	Course ID	COMP 9031

1.2	Course name - Long Java and Internet Programming
1.3	Course name - Abbreviated Java and Internet Programming

1.4	Course Authority  Nandan  Parameswaran
        ext/email 6941;  paramesh@cse.unsw.edu.au

1.5	Organisational Unit responsible for course
        School: School of Computer Science  and Engineering
	Faculty:  Engineering
	Academic Group Code (Faculty):    ENG
	Academic Organization Code (Owner):  COMPSC

1.6	Justification of Proposal
Java is an important language in which not only object oriented
programming can be taught, but also   many other issues related to
real world programming such as concurrency, networking, and   dynamic
HTML, and software engineering.  In the current curriculum, there is no
course which teaches object oriented programming and Java programming
to  the post graduate students.  This course  will aim to  teach both
the underlying concepts in Java programming  and  their variations as
found in   real world applications.

1.7	Consultation Process
        1. Dr John Shepherd,
        Postgraduate Course Coordinator, School of Computer Science and Engg.
	2. Past students of COMP9021 and COMP9024.
