Course Objectives:	The objective of this course is to give a full knowledge on the object oriented usage on real projects. The goal of this course is to equip students with advanced design and programming techniques in the object-oriented programming paradigms. To increase students’ knowledge of object-oriented design concepts, • To teach the knowledge and skills needed to develop reusable, quality programs, • To instruct students on the use of object-oriented design tools such as UML for modeling problem solutions and complex systems, and to increase students proficiency in programming in object-oriented environments.
