Computer Science prepares students for transfer into bachelor’s degree programs at four-year colleges and universities in a variety of programs including computer science, information processing and related fields. The program meets the guidelines of the Association of Computing Machinery (ACM).
The field study for this degree focuses on an introduction to the theoretical foundations of computing, algorithms and programming techniques as applied to Operating Systems, Information Technology and Data Structures. Students reinforce this theoretical knowledge base with programming in both high-level programming languages and Assembly Language programming as well as study computer architecture in great detail.
NOTE: In order to complete this program, students must have a minimum of 60 credits of which 15 or more must be in Mathematics.
Graduates are able to:
- solve various kinds of problems using high level languages
- apply sound programming techniques in designing program structure and logic
- apply appropriate data structures and algorithms arising in various applied fields
- assess the implications of work performed either as an individual or as a member of a team
- demonstrate an understanding of basic computer architecture
- demonstrate the mathematical proficiency required for an understanding of the concepts involved
