What classes are you taking in the fall?...update: winter classes?
So I registered for my fall semester yesterday. I'm not going to even get into what a nightmare that was. But alas I got into everything I wanted to. I'm in my 4th and final year of Criminology and Communication Studies at the University of Windsor and all of the classes I have to take are required...I only have a few options (i.e. take 1 arts...take 2 out of the following 10 courses...and so forth)
I'm pretty happy with my schedule. Most of the classes don't sound too bad, and a couple I'm pretty excited about. Here's what I'm taking:
Environmental Ethics
What ethical obligations do we have to the non-human environment? The course examines various answers to that question. Topics may include: animal rights, the moral status of non-human life, the intrinsic value of ecosystems, the importance of wilderness, deep ecology, eco-feminism, economic development, environmentalism, and politics.
Film Making Process 1
Theoretical and practical examination of the technical, communicative and aesthetic considerations in black-and-white 16mm film making. Topics include optics and exposure, cinematography, picture editing, and double-system, non-synchronous sound recording, and editing. (Credit for this course will be allocated only after successful completion of 40-212.)
Victimology
Victimology is a subfield of criminology that Focuses on victims within the study of crime. Topics explored may include: victimology patterns, the process and aftermath of the victimization experience, the involvement and treatment of victims in the criminal justice system, legal remedies and services available to victims, restorative justice initiatives, and victims' rights.

And then adding a course.... orrrr..... a job 
Chances are, another course.
Won't be able to choose my classes until August but it'll look something like this:
Database Design II and SQL using Oracle
Students will learn the entire set of SQL statements using Oracle's 9i DBMS. Students will also learn Oracle's SQL*Plus commands. Students will work in teams to prepare and implement the logical and physical database schema for a business application requiring 12 to 18 tables including all necessary constraints to protect the integrity of the data.
Object Oriented Programming II Using C++

Internet III - Web Programming on Windows
This course specifically addresses the skills needed to develop feature-rich database-driven web sites running on Windows servers. The course will focus on ASP.NET server-side programming using the Visual C#.NET language. ADO.NET will be used for database access, and technology such as XML Web Services will also be covered. Installation and configuration of IIS (Internet Information Server) will be studied, as will Windows-specific Internet-related security issues.

In this course students are required to select a project that involves developing a computer system. Students learn project management concepts while carrying out requirements gathering, analysis, design, and implementation planning for the identified system. Project management concepts learned include scope development and management, creation of work breakdown structures including task dependencies, and cost benefit analysis using return on investment and payback. Students create dialogue maps and mock-ups of user interfaces for their systems, and use a modeling tool to create detailed software models.
+ a gen ed course...I'm kind of behind in terms of my courses but I should be ok.
