Program Learning Outcomes

The goal of this program is to provide the first two years of a Computer Science baccalaureate degree program for the students who wish to transfer to a four-year program in Computer Science. The core curriculum will provide foundations in programming and problem solving, data representation and algorithms, object-oriented programming, computer organization and assembly language programming fulfilling the core competencies of critical thinking and information technology. Although this program is primarily designed for students to transfer to a four-year program, after successful completion of this program, students will also find job opportunities in computer science and information technology area.

Students who have completed the program should be able to:

  • Learn fundamental principles, theories and analytical skills to solve computing problems throughout the program
  • Analyze, design, choose the interface, coding, test, and debug to effectively develop error-free computer programs
  • Learn computer architecture, software design, and programming that are most widely used in engineering, science, and technology-related fields
  • Identify, formulate, and solve problems and learn to adapt to evolving computer languages, systems, and industry standards
  • Identify, formulate, and solve problems and learn to adapt to evolving computer
