1. Statement of Program Goals and Objectives:
Students who complete the AS-T will be prepared for more advanced coursework at a CSU, and will also be able to:
1) Code, debug, document, test, and run programs.
2) Write programs in at least three different programming languages, and compare and contrast the philosophies and comparative advantages of each these languages.
3) Demonstrate professional conduct by meeting project deadlines, and participating in self-managed teams.
4) Create algorithms to solve programming problems, and implement those algorithms.
2. Catalog Description:
The Associate in Science in Computer Science for Transfer Degree (AS-T) has been established to assist students in seamlessly transferring from Gavilan College to a California State University (CSU), with the objective of pursuing a baccalaureate degree in computer science. The AS-T therefore necessarily requires the completion of a general education sequence of courses, as well as specific preparation for upper-division computer science coursework.
Upon completion of the Associate in Science in Computer Science for Transfer Degree, students will be prepared for more advanced upper-division coursework in business administration, and will be able to:
1) Code, debug, document, test, and run programs.
2) Write programs in at least three different programming languages, and compare and contrast the philosophies and comparative advantages of each these languages.
3) Demonstrate professional conduct by meeting project deadlines, and participating in self-managed teams.
4) Create algorithms to solve programming problems, and implement those algorithms.
In addition to passing all courses required for the major area of emphasis with a C or better (letter grading option only), completion requirements for the degree include:
(1) Completion of 60 semester units or 90 quarter units that are eligible for transfer to the California State University, including both of the following:
(A) The Intersegmental General Education Transfer Curriculum (IGETC) or the California State University General Education –Breadth Requirements.
(B) A minimum of 18 semester units or 27 quarter units in a major area of emphasis, as determined by the community college district.
(2) Obtainment of a minimum grade point average of 2.0
Pursuant to SB1440, section 66746, the description must also include the following completion requirements:
(1) Completion of 60 semester units or 90 quarter units that are eligible for transfer to the California State University, including both of the following:
(A) The Intersegmental General Education Transfer Curriculum (IGETC) or the California State University General Education – Breadth Requirements.
(B) A minimum of 18 semester units or 27 quarter units in a major or area of emphasis, as determined by the community college district.
(2) Obtainment of a minimum grade point average of 2.0.
