Investigating Everyday
Problems & Their
Current IT Solutions

As we procede through a normal day, we are faced with a myriad of small problems ranging from "How can I avoid that traffic jam?" to "What's the number for the pizza place that delivers?" Other larger problems, such as "Are Maryland's new voting machines accurate and secure?", and "How do we train our surgeons without putting patients at risk?" also occasionally get our attention.

The purpose of this course is to provide first-year students with an opportunity to study some real-world problems and to see how research is carried out on those problems at UMBC. This course will concentrate on problems currently being studied by members of the CSEE Department, but it is interdisciplinary in nature since those problems vary in subject matter tremendously.
