Computer Science - Programming Program Description
The AAS in Computer Science-Programming provides an option for students who wish to transfer to a four-year program in programming. Cecil currently offers a programming option within our Computer Information Systems degree and is now creating a stand-alone Computer Science Programming degree to replace it. The program will introduce students to abstracted layers and data structures; the various technology domains; operating systems; networking, data, security and programming. Problem solving and proper algorithm design are also emphasized.
