Glendale Community College : Computer Science

The Computer Science major at different universities can be found either as its own major, or as part of the Engineering Department. This major should have the student taking care of these requirements as early as possible in their academic careers Please note that since the preparation for the major is so extensive, most colleges and universities have modified general education patterns. Because Computer Science is a popular major, most schools and colleges have special application deadlines or screening procedures. Below are some examples of the courses required for the major.
