- Location(s): Main Campus Close Student Success Advisor(s) Sample Degree Plan Program Learning Outcomes CIP Code: 11.0201 Program Information All courses must be passed with a C- (1.7) or better to be counted in the major. All prerequisite courses must be passed with a C- (1.7) or better. Credits older than 10 years must be approved by the CSCY Department Chair before being allowed to count towards the degree due to the rapid change in the industry. Students who complete the first two years of requirements for Software Development have also completed the requirements for the Software Development (AAS) . Please see that program’s catalog entry for more details. If a student does not possess Computer Application skills, the following course is suggested but does not pertain to the degree: CSCY 1000 - Introduction to Computer Applications and the Internet . This program requires the completion of multiple math courses. Students who are not prepared for these math courses may need additional math credits/preparation, which may affect time to graduation. Please consult your Student Success Advisor for more information.
