Summary: The Z section is an accelerated course that combines the content of COMP 1405 and COMP 1406 into a single term.
The Z section is an accelerated version of COMP 1405 and COMP 1406, which allows you to complete both of them in the fall semester. COMP 1405 Z runs during the first half of the semester and COMP 1406 Z runs during the second half of the semester. It is important to note that the Z section is not a separate course, it is just a different section of both COMP 1405 and COMP 1406.
The learning outcomes and topics covered are the same as the standard versions of these courses, but they are covered in half as much time. It is recommended that you have some prior programming experience in order to ensure that you are able to keep up with the pace of the course.
The Z section is primarily for students in the Shopify Dev Degree and Bachelor of Cybersecurity (B.Cyber) programs. However, Bachelor of Computer Science (BCS) students with an admission average of 90% or higher may also be eligible to take the course. If you are a BCS student, you must submit a registration override request to get permission to register.
