You should talk to your advisor to evaluate your past course work and determine whether it can count in place of any of our courses. It’s very possible that a prior college-level programming course in Java, or even another similar language such as C++ or C#, could be substituted for CS 145. It is also possible to have a high school AP test in computer science count for CS 145. Talk to your advisor or the department chair if you have questions on this. Top of Page I have some prior computer science experience, specifically a course in computer applications like Microsoft Word/Excel and using a web browser like Netscape/Internet Explorer. What CS courses should I take first? The answer here is the same as if you’ve had no prior programming experience – realize that using computer software is not the same as programming, designing and analyzing computer software. See the answer to question #8 above.
