COMPUTER SCIENCE – A.S. Hostos Community College proposes an Associate in Science (AS) degree in Computer Science. The proposed Associate in Science (AS) degree in Computer Science consists of courses that allow students to pursue further education and careers in Computer Science, Cybersecurity, and Information Technology, as well as other software and computer networking related fields. The curriculum emphasizes basic computer science principles and provides a foundation in programming and network security as well as computer industry certifications. The program meets the general education requirements for the associate degree at Hostos and also meets the general education requirements for transfer to baccalaureate programs at other CUNY schools.
