Program details

Overview

The Associate of Science (Computer Science) Degree covers the first two years of undergraduate study in computer science, combining lectures, laboratories, and online and blended learning with field trips, demonstrations, guest speakers, and case studies. Students complete a minimum of 60 transferable credits at the first- and second-year level, including foundational computer science, mathematics, and science coursework designed to align with third- and fourth-year requirements at partner universities across British Columbia. The programme awards an Associate Degree and is structured so credits transfer directly into bachelor's degree programmes at other BC post-secondary institutions. Full-time study takes two years, with part-time options available and a five-year maximum completion window. Instruction takes place through class-based delivery, including online and blended components. The programme is intended for students who plan to complete a bachelor's degree in computer science or a related field elsewhere after finishing the associate credential at Vancouver Community College.
