Computer Technology and Programming offers a two-year program comprising the foundations of a concise computer science education through its carefully designed curriculum covering contemporary computing topics; ultimately earning the students an Associate of Science degree.

The curriculum emphasizes basic theory as well as practical experience in a variety of operating environments, tools and programming languages. Students who complete the program will have a thorough knowledge and experience in structured and object oriented methodologies in Windows and UNIX environments. Programming languages like C, C++, Java, visual programming tools, relational database management systems, and Internet programming concepts are the major topics covered during the program. Students are required to design and implement various programming projects in partial fulfillment of the curriculum.

Instruction is supported by the department computational facilities including a network of personal computers in laboratories and multiple Linux servers, all connected to the campus backbone.

The program specifics are designed and frequently revised to reflect changes in the IT industry. This dynamism in the curriculum adapts the students to the needs and expectations of the industry as well as preparing them to continue their academic studies leading to a BS degree in Computer Science.

The compulsory 30 work days industrial training has proved to be a valuable interaction between the industry and the department, as well as good recruitment opportunities for the students.
