Systems Programming is a core Computer Science course that explores the fundamentals of computing systems. This course introduces students to the Unix programming environment where they will explore numerical representation, memory management, system calls, data structures, networking, and concurrency. Examining these topics will enable students to become familiar and comfortable with the lower level aspects of computing, while providing the foundation for further study in subsequent systems courses such as computer architecture and operating systems.
