Computer Science/Computer Information Systems

Baccalaureate degree programs in Information Technology have traditionally grown from a number of different disciplines, including Mathematics, Business, and Engineering. Computer Science (CS) degrees usually have a general theoretical emphasis. Computer Information Systems (CIS) degrees have more of a business emphasis. Computer Engineering degrees have more of a hardware emphasis. At the two year level, either the CS or CIS degree provides a good foundation for further study in most fields of Computer Science. Engineering degrees are most specific to future engineering study. To transfer into a baccalaureate degree program in computer Science as a junior, students need to complete a minimum of 60 semester credits. Students are strongly encouraged to complete an A.S. degree prior to transfer. Since admission is competitive, completion of the recommended courses does not guarantee admission. Students should plan their transfer programs with a CSIT faculty advisor and the catalog of the four-year college or university they plan to attend.
