Computer Science Transfer (CU)

The Computer Science Transfer Program prepares students for transfer into the junior year of a four-year baccalaureate program in Computer Science. This program combines an in-depth study of programming concepts with a strong mathematics and physical science sequence. An Honors Concentration Option is also available for this program.

Transfer agreements exist with University of Massachusetts at Lowell, Fitchburg State College, Merrimack College, Salem State College, and Wentworth Institute of Technology.

Mathematics through trigonometry and computer literacy at the high school or college level are required for admission into this program.
