→What are the course prerequisites, and why?
IPC144 (Introduction to Programming in C) is a prerequisite for this course - you need to have a solid, basic understanding of C to participate effectively. You can select a project that fits your particular combination of other system administration and/or software development skills (system installation, Bash or Python scripting, programming in various languages, software packaging, network testing, and so forth).
In addition, you'll need skills in scripting (for task automation) or in object oriented programming (for program analysis and optimization), and therefore one of these courses is required as a prerequisite: OPS435, OOP344, or OOP345.
