8 courses with the subject CIS, each shown exactly as we captured it from the college's catalog, with every element we hold. Where the wording looks broken, that is our reading of the catalog, not the college's text.
CIS 100Intro to Computers3
An introduction to computer hardware and software. Students with minimal computer experience will learn concepts related to hardware, software, information processing, and the Internet. Students will use personal computers in a laboratory environment to gain experience using an operating system (including file management), a Web browser, electronic mail, word processing software, electronic spreadsheet software, and graphics. Students who have completed CIS courses higher than CIS 100 are not eligible to take this course.
An introduction to computer and business information systems, including a basic introduction to computer programming. Topics include information technology, business information system, and systems development. The student is introduced to basic programming concepts using a limited language repertoire to develop procedures and major control structures. (Prerequisite: 3 CIS credits or equivalent experience)
An introduction to the fundamentals of 3D modeling, animation and video production using current software. Topics 108 BA include how to render in digital 3D, create simple animations and create and edit videos. A basic history and the theory of animation, 3D modeling and video will be covered.
