Your degree will be evaluated to determine whether any of your previous coursework is transferable.  From a foreign college or university, you have your degree evaluated by the World Education Service, and then you must submit the evaluation to the Office of the Registrar in Chambers Hall. Your degree will be evaluated to determine transferable courses. Some Of Our CS Professors, April 2006 Jane Liefert Phyllis Fleming Beverly Simon M Sackrowitz Steven Zale Paul Bhatia Jeff Spector Frank Burke Academic Support at MCC  Academic Advising  Scholarship Programs (HS Scholars Prog)  Counseling & Career Services  Project Connections  Transfer Services  Minority Student Affairs  Educational Opportunity Fund  Peer Tutoring Our Computer Labs  More than 50 labs around campus  Office 2003, Solaris, Windows XP Over 1100 PCs, including 66 systems in the IRC Open Lab  Open Lab is a place for unscheduled access to the computers Mini/Microcomputers run WinXP, DOS, UNIX Programming languages: Java, C++, QBasic, VB  Others include web programming: CGI, Perl, HTML, JavaScript, CSS Smartboards are installed in various classrooms     Computer Lab Hours at MCC  Monday through Friday: 8 am to 11 pm  Saturday: 8 am to 5 pm  Sunday: 9 am to 3 pm Computer Information Systems General Option  The Computer Information Systems - General Option     is recommended for those students wishing to enter the job market upon graduation from MCC Many of the courses in this degree program will transfer to upper division colleges The curriculum includes courses in programming languages, operating systems, database, systems analysis, and the Internet For information about transferability of courses in this curriculum, see your advisor This curriculum has less difficult math requirements than the Computer Science Transfer curriculum, so students who are not strong in math are encouraged to select this curriculum A.A.S.
