Computer Information Systems - Computer Science Transfer

The Computer Science Transfer option prepares students to finish their education in Computer Science at a four-year institution. The CIS faculty worked closely with the Computer Science faculty at the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth, and the resulting program provides a seamless transition to Computer Science at UMass Dartmouth. The program also parallels the computer science offerings at other local colleges and universities.

Program Information

• The first two years of a degree in Computer Science can be done within this option at Bristol.

• Students who have earned credit at other institutions may be able to obtain transfer credit.  Transfer credit approval for any Computer Information Systems (CIS or CIT) course must be approved by the Department Chair or by a full-time faculty member in the department.

• Students may be required to obtain and use specific hardware, operating systems, or applications.

After Bristol

• Recent graduates have transferred to Bridgewater State University, Rhode Island College, Roger Williams University, Bryant University, University of Massachusetts Amherst and University of Massachusetts Dartmouth.

• Bristol participates in the statewide MassTransfer program and has developed many program-to-program transfer articulation agreements which guarantee admission and credit transfer. For a complete listing of eligible MassTransfer programs, current Bristol articulation agreements, and to complete an A2B Program Search, visit the Transfer Services website to review which credits will be transferred and applied to your degree.
