General Information

The Computer Technology and Programming associate degree program provides students with a broad background and specific skills in the disciplines of computer programming technology including: the fundamentals of, and specific skills in, computer programming; the structured logic and design of computer programs; the fundamentals of algorithm design and analysis of data structures; broad experience in problem solving using computers; the basics of computer organization and architecture; an understanding of the basics of computer operating systems; an understanding of basic computer networking technology; and an emphasis on current, state-of-the-art, object-oriented computer programming languages.

Computer programmers provide valuable services across economic sectors, creating code for software and computer applications and programs. These professionals work in information technology, academia, government service, and medical fields — with additional career opportunities as independent and contract workers.

Requirements for computer programming positions vary, but with advanced education and credentials, programming professionals increase their earning potential and career options. To expand their prospects, computer programmers can network through professional and career resources. Computer programmers should also consider how location factors into their job options.

This is a 2-year associate academic program. First year of the program focuses on developing the knowledge about Basic English, mathematics, programming and computer hardware/software. During their second year, courses on computer networks, internet programming, object-oriented programming, database programming and management are offered, which improve their knowledge and prepare them for employment in the industry.
