Overview
SCC’s Computer Information Technology program offers hands-on training that leads students directly to employment in an IT career. The flexible CIT program allows students to attend either full-time or part-time while taking day or evening courses, with many available online.
An associate degree from SCC provides career paths in either Applications Development and Networking Security and Support.
The Applications Development focus trains students to design and code software applications on various computer platforms (mobile, PC, web, minicomputer, mainframe). Within this focus, students choose between two options: (1) The Integrated Platforms option provides training in software development using multiple computer platforms ranging from mobile device and web development to mainframe computing. Students experience hands-on training in Java, C#.NET, JSP, SQL, COBOL, and DB2. (2) The PC & Web Platforms option provides training in PC-based computer languages such as Java and C#.NET. Students are also trained in mobile app development and website programming using PHP, ASP.NET, JavaScript, jQuery, and SQL.
The Networking Security & Support focus offers students hands-on training in the setup, maintenance, support, management and protection of computer hardware and software, operating systems, and networks. Within this focus, there are three options: (1) The Network Management option trains students to set up, maintain,
and manage computer networks. Courses deal with basic data
communications, TCP/IP, Cisco networking, Windows Server, Linux Server
administration and virtual machine management. The Network Security option introduces students to cyber security tools and practices needed to protect computers from ever-present cyber threats. Topics covered include security operations and ethics, Cisco security and computer forensics. (3) The Computer Support option offers training for technical support and help desk positions. Courses cover advanced computer applications, network basics, IT support tools and techniques, and hardware and software troubleshooting.
A certificate is available to provide basic skills for employment outside the IT field.
