What will I learn?

This Associates in Arts (AA-DTA), Computer Science Focus is a more flexible version of the Associates in Computer Science (AA-DTA/MRP). This two-year degree covers the fundamental building blocks of computer science, including computer programming, collaboration, and problem solving. Coursework equips students with the essential skills needed to skill-up or transfer to a four-year university for further education. With growing needs in the tech industry, an associate degree in computer science can set the foundation for a variety of career opportunities in fields such as software development, cybersecurity, data science, and more. The Associate in Arts - Direct Transfer Agreement (AA-DTA) is part of Shoreline’s General Transfer program and is designed to meet the first two years of requirements of most four-year degrees.
