Fall 2013

Computer & Information Technologies General Information

The CIT program has recently undergone extensive revisions and as of fall, 2012, the BCTC CIT program will include Applications, Computer Science, Internet Technologies, Network Technologies, and Programming tracks. A core set of courses are required by all options, which includes a general education component central to a collegiate education and technical courses giving students an introduction to information systems, computer applications, program development, system maintenance, and networking including the Internet. In addition to core courses, students must take specialty courses for their selected option.Track Information The Applications Track emphasizes several aspects of application software. It includes such productivity applications as: word processing, spreadsheets, database management, presentations, geographic information systems, website development/maintenance, and help desk tracking systems. Completion of this track will prepare students to work with computer-based systems in business and industry focusing on the following specializations: Business Software Specialist - Designed to train students to operate a wide variety of

software packages and to assist businesses in developing and maintain databases, producing financial statements, and developing applications using various software packages.

Computer Application Support - Provides an in-depth knowledge of application software, computer system configurations, Help Desk Tools/Software, end-user documentation, user training, and other user support skills.

Geographic Information Systems - Provides students with practical GIS skills and a solid foundation for geographical manipulation through developing and implementing GIS Applications.

Software Support - Provides an in-depth knowledge of application software, computer system configurations, and data driven websites.

The Computer Science Track – See CIT – Computer Science Track Curriculum Sheet.The Internet Technologies Track prepares students to design, program, and maintain Internet-based services. With specializations in web programming and web server administration, this track will help prepare students for positions developing and maintaining interactive web sites. The Network Technologies Track provides the concepts and skills needed to set up, maintain, and expand networked computer systems. This track requires sequences in Microsoft Windows, Cisco, and UNIX/Linux as well as courses providing deeper insight into Internet protocols and network security. Employment opportunities include entry-level positions in installation and administration of local area networks in medium to large organizations and as computer network administrators in small businesses. The Programming Track prepares students to design, develop, and maintain computer programs written in current and emerging programming languages. With specializations in Information Systems and Software Development, students successfully completing this track are prepared for entry-level positions in computer programming. Information Systems - This track is designed with an emphasis on programming for a

business environment. Students completing the Information Systems track study basic business concepts, one programming language at an advanced level, and two programming languages at an introductory level.

Software Development - This track emphasizes computer software development. Students completing the Software Development track study a minimum of two computer programming languages at an advanced level and additional programming language(s) at
