Title
Curriculum recommendations and guidelines for the community and junior college career program in computer programming: a working paper of the Association for Computing Machinery committee on curriculum in computer sciences by the sub committee on community and junior college curriculum
Abstract
Curriculum recommendations are given for a two year Associate Degree program to prepare computer programmers for jobs. The program is specifically directed toward the education of the computer programmer who works in conjunction with a systems analyst in the programming environment usually found in a medium to large job shop. Graduates should be qualified to do entry-level applications programming to support the general, administrative, and organizational information processing functions of industry, commerce, business, and government service.The history of and need for education in the computer field at the two year college level are discussed. Specific objectives and subject matter for the curriculum are given. Recommendations for facilities and staff resources needed to support such a program are made. Suggestions for implementation and for adaptation for continued relevance are given.
