Prerequisite(s): CP 500 Department: Mathematics and Computer Science
(s) Hours: 4 hrs./2 hrs. lecture, 2 hrs. laboratory This course will prepare students for the CompTIA A+ exam. Students will understand software and hardware topics covered by the exam, and have a more complete understanding of how computers and operating systems work. They will learn how to identify, resolve, and prevent malfunctions due to hardware and software problems. Prerequisite(s)/Corequisite(s): CIS 1200 Department: Mathematics and Computer Science
(s) Hours: 4 hrs. An introduction to the design and development of web pages. Students will develop their own web pages using web page development software. Prerequisite(s): CP 500 Department: Mathematics and Computer Science 421
(s) Hours: 4 hrs. A second course in design and development of web pages emphasizing HTML coding, interactivity, animation and ecommerce applications of the World Wide Web. Students will develop their own web pages using web page software. This course covers the content of Microsoft Exam 98-383: Introduction to Programming Using HTML and CSS. Prerequisite(s): CIS 2100 or TEC 5300 Department: Mathematics and Computer Science
(s) Hours: 4 hrs. This course covers the basics of building relational databases and presenting the data in a user-friendly manner. The concepts of database normalization, data validation and referential integrity issues are stressed. The course utilizes Microsoft Access to cover these concepts but what is taught can easily be ported to large database systems such as Oracle and SQL Server. Data presentation layers using forms and reports are also covered as well as the basics of the SQL query language. Prerequisite(s): CP 500 Department: Mathematics and Computer Science 422
(s) Hours: 4 hrs. Building on concepts covered by the CIS 3100 (Introduction to Database) course and using VBA as the underlying programming language, this course focuses on accessing data contained in a typical database system and extracting and manipulating such data through code and the SQL language. Also covered are concepts of looping datasets, decisions using If/Then/Else and case statements. Both DAO and ADO data access methods are utilized and the code snippets needed to manipulate various controls of a typical presentation layer are covered. Prerequisite(s): CIS 3100 Department: Mathematics and Computer Science
(s) Hours: 4 hrs. An introduction to the concepts of networking and administration. Students will be exposed to the various components of a network environment - how to manage, maintain, secure, and troubleshoot them, and what their limitation and weaknesses are. This course will assist students in preparing for the CompTIA
(s) Hours: 4 hrs. /2 hrs. lecture, 2 hrs. laboratory Cross-Listed With: BIO 6000 Introduction to biochemistry topics, genomics, and computer-related applications in Bioinformatics. Analyses of genetic sequences and their corresponding three-dimensional structures, computer-aided sequence searches and comparisons (homologies). The algorithms used to perform searches and comparisons are provided. Computers are used to implement gene analyses in the area of DNA, protein, and RNA prediction of sequences and structures. The course includes a computer laboratory and biological, wet laboratory in genomics. Prerequisite(s): MAT 1400 and BIO 1300 Department: Mathematics and Computer Science
(s) Hours: 4 hrs.
