The Department of Computer Technology (CPT) offers programs at both the associate and bachelor’s degree levels. The associate degree emphasizes application programming and end-user computing skills while providing the foundation for continued education and professional growth. The bachelor degree programs emphasize either data management and systems analysis and design, data communications and networking, or a concentration of your own design.
The Purdue University Associate of Science degree in computer technology at IUPUI features two four-semester options designed to prepare graduates to work in either commercial or technical areas. Students may choose to continue their education, rather than entering the job market, upon completion of their selected associate degree option. Others may return to college after a period of time in practical employment. Purdue University at IUPUI offers the educational opportunities of a B.S. degree to both types of students.
Students who must interrupt their course of study for two calendar years or more will be required to meet all requirements for the program as it stands at the time of their return. CPT courses over 10 years old may have to be repeated; check with a CPT advisor.
Purdue’s Bachelor of Science degree in computer technology is available in three tracks: a standard track with selected concentrations to be determined by student and advisor, a business track that also earns a minor from the Indiana University Kelley School of Business, and a technical track that also earns a minor from the Department of Electrical Engineering Technology.
The Department of Computer Technology has been a leader in offering degree courses that can be completed by distance education. Selected courses may be taken either partially or completely via the Web.
The department offers a minor in computer technology to students majoring in other areas of study at IUPUI. The computer technology minor provides a basic set of computer concepts and programming courses along with a sequence of computing specialty courses.
The department also offers a Web-based Information Technology Certificate program, which can be completed via distance education. The certificate program requires 18 hours of course work in the following areas: programming, data management, systems and user interface design, and Web architecture.
