Students who have taken a course in C or C++ may choose to begin in ICS 180 Java for Transfer Students, depending on their level of confidence in their programming skills. ICS 180 may be substituted for the combination of ICS 140 and ICS 141 Programming with Objects. It is required to have MATH 115 College Algebra completed prior to ICS 141 or ICS 180. Also, MATH 215 Discrete Math should be taken concurrently, if not before, ICS 141 or ICS 180. Once students complete ICS 141 or ICS 180 and MATH 215, they should be ready to enroll in ICS 240. To begin placement in ICS 141, a student must have had an equivalent transfer course to ICS 140.
