The Associate of Applied Science degree in Computer Information Systems (CIS) is designed to produce graduates skilled in the field of networked client/server microcomputer applications. This program will help prepare individuals for entry-level positions as network specialists who will possess a working knowledge of Network Administration, Email, Voice Mail, Network Operating Systems, and the Internet. This program also provides the basic knowledge of the operation of microcomputer installation and repair as well as the operation of a variety of software packages.
