Computer Graphics Code: CS501 Contact: 3L Credits: 3 Allotted HRS: 36L

This 3-credit, 36-hour course on computer graphics has four main objectives: 1) Understanding how graphics are created in computers, 2) Using colors for different objects, 3) Rescaling, shifting, skewing, and rotating graphical objects, and 4) Animating simple graphics. The course outcomes are to understand the foundations, concepts, and software used for computer graphics. It is divided into four modules that cover topics like displays, scan conversion algorithms, 2D and 3D transformations, viewing and clipping, curves, and hidden surface removal.

Objective(s)

Making the student understand how graphics created in computer world is the main goal of this
course. Using colors in different places and for different objects is also one of the goals of the
course. Learning how to rescale, transmit (shift), shear (skew), and rotate different graphical
objects is another goal. Animating some simple graphics is the last aim of the course.

Outcome(s)

 To understand the foundations of computer graphics.

 To understand concept of geometric, mathematical and algorithmic concepts necessary


for programming computer graphics

 To understand the comprehension of windows,clipping and view-ports object


representation in relation to images displayed on screen.

 To understand the software utilized in constructing computer graphics applications.
