A.S. Degree

 

 
Computer Science Program A.S. Degree – Fall 2007
 
This program is designed for students who would like to transfer to a four-year program in Computer Science or related areas, such as Management Information Systems or Software Engineering. Hands-on computer courses are combined with general and mathematics courses to provide the student with the essential coursework needed to succeed beyond the Associate Degree.
 
Graduates of this program will be able to:
  • Analyze problems and design programs
  • Code and document programs
  • Debug and test programs
  • Analyze and test results
  • Design user interfaces
  • Explain functions of operating systems and computer architecture
 
Note: This program assumes that the student is prepared to take Calculus I as a first semester college level math course. Students who need to satisfy basic math requirements or who are counseled to take courses prior to Calculus will need to take additional credits.
