Program Details

The A.S. degree is designed for students who are looking for immediate entry into a career upon graduation. Most program courses directly relate to the identified career area. The remaining courses are comprised of general education courses.

Concentrations:

The A.S. in Computer Science and Analysis offers three program concentration options: Business Application Programming, Internet of Things (IoT) Applications, and Mobile Applications Development.

Internet of Things Applications

Students in this concentration acquire a skill-set that leads to producing connected devices by developing applications that can run on microcontroller development boards, designing and simulating the functioning of the devices and building physical prototypes. Upon completion of the program, students will have learned how to develop applications in the dominant programming languages used in IoT, completed projects that they can include in their portfolio and configured different single board computers.
