AA/AS in Computer Science

The Computer Science AS at Mohawk Valley Community College is intended for students who expect to move on to a four-year school and complete a bachelor's degree. It belongs to the School of STEM and is organised as an Associate in Science. Coursework leans on hands-on laboratory activity that asks students to tackle industry-style problems analytically. Along the way they build working knowledge of several programming languages and a range of subfields, and they practise analytical problem solving and communicating clearly about computing topics. Graduates have continued at schools such as Rochester Institute of Technology and John Fisher College. A semester-by-semester degree plan is available from the college, and the page also mentions that some adults between certain ages may qualify to study without paying tuition.
