Final Project
My “Blank” Semester in CIS 265
For your final project, you will create a program that combines all the skills you’ve learned this
semester. This project is meant to be FUN and EXCITING! You should be creative and utilize
the resources provided within the course and outside of the course. Part research, part coding,
you will be expected to search the internet to assist with making this come together.
Give your project a cool name that describes your semester in CIS 265 this Fall. For example,
“My AMAZING Semester in CIS 265”, or “My CHALLENGING Semester in CIS 265”, etc.
PART 1 – Program (50 points)

Grading
You will be graded on completeness of code and demonstrated effort. I expect the program to
build and run successfully, however, if it does not run, you will still be graded on the work itself.
I encourage you all to work with your peers, friends, or classmates, to get this done. Don’t
stress. You have an entire month, use your time wisely!
