Program Learning Outcomes
The transfer program in Computer Information Systems (CIS) provides a strong foundation in both business studies and information systems. The concepts of information systems and the hands-on experience gained in the design, development, and implementation of business applications provide this foundation. Students will be prepared to transfer to a four-year college, begin a career working in the information systems field, or apply their knowledge in programming, web development, and/or computer technology in an organization.
Students who have completed the program should be able to:
- Demonstrate basic knowledge of information systems principles and the fundamental skills of business programming and application software in a business computing environment
- Communicate effectively and professionally with a broad range of audiences
- Analyze a problem, critically investigate and define computing requirements appropriate to its solution
- Demonstrate knowledge of programming processes including planning, writing, testing, executing and debugging
- Demonstrate knowledge of web and database design, development and management in a business information environment
