AA/AS in Computer and Information Sciences, General

The computer science pathway is an associate of science for students who plan to transfer to a university to study computer science, software engineering or cybersecurity. It covers the early coursework that four-year programs expect, so students can enter a bachelor's program with a solid foundation. The pathway is housed in the science and engineering division. A dedicated STEM advisor helps students match their courses to the requirements of the school they hope to attend, and faculty in biology, engineering, chemistry, physics and geology teach the science and math that support the major. A degree map and an outcomes crosswalk describe the sequence of courses. The transfer center and career center are available throughout. Students can also use the college's transfer and career centers for planning help, resume preparation and interview practice, and the usual next steps of admissions, financial aid, advising and registration are listed on the page.
