The main focus of associate degree in computing is to prepare students  with more focus on hands on skills with the expertise in cutting edge technologies The program provides a unique hands-on practical exposure to our students so that after completing their associate degree they can even start working in the industry straightaway and still has an option to reevaluate whether want to complete their bachelor’s degree.

Computer Science is one of the most sought after degrees in the world and spans multiple fields including artificial intelligence and machine learning, game development, web development, mobile application development, cyber security and cloud computing. Each of these areas boats numerous lucrative career prospects (e.g. web content developer, junior software developer, help desk technician, game developer,  system administrator, database administrator, Data Analyst) that typically do not require a bachelor’s degree but expect some hands-on-skills.  A large number of students end up setting up their own software houses or are self-employed and are developing software and providing services to global clients as freelancers. This degree is exceptionally suitable for females in our socio-economic structure where a female can very efficiently work from home as a freelancer for international projects and, at the same time fulfill her domestic responsibilities.

The primary goal of the Associate degree in Computing is to prepare students with more focus on technical and foundation subjects. Our degree allows the students to break their education into more manageable goals or find entry level roles to gain valuable experience.  Our program emphasizes the development of analytical skills, acquisition of knowledge and understanding of systems, languages, and tools required for effective computation-based problem solving with a major focus on hands-on practical knowledge of cutting edge technologies. The program thus prepares them for a successful career in computing as well as gives an option to transfer to a bachelor’s degree program. These students are also groomed to understand their social obligations and behave as responsible citizens of the society.
