Description

The internet is changing every aspect of our lives, including how we communicate, learn, navigate, organize, work, play, and love. The internet also represents a crowning achievement of computing: a single system uniting hardware and software, theory and implementation, standards and innovation, engineering and science, protests that topple governments and stupid cat videos. This course provides an overview of how the internet works. Along with its technologies, we will delve into the internet’s past and future, the driving forces behind it, and societal implications. The course is targeted at a general audience, but because the internet reflects contributions from many areas of computer science and computer engineering, it also provides a good overview for potential majors. Familiarity with the web and access to a personal computer are assumed, but no technical background is required.
