Math and Computer Science
Would you like to satisfy your General Education math or quantitative requirement in just three or six weeks? Students taking mathematics or computer science courses during the summer can satisfy Gen Ed requirements or complete prerequisites for other math courses in a concentrated time period. As a bonus, summer school classes tend to be small and relaxed, and meeting every day can foster a real sense of camaraderie.
CS-156 Web Site Design & Management (3 credits)
This course requires extensive use of an HTML editor and a web design package to create web pages and web sites. Students will also learn site planning management.
