COMPUTER PROGRAMMING MAJOR

Computer programming is exactly that; you program computers and programs to fit your needs. That may mean just editing software or computer programs. On the other hand, that may mean creating and designing a whole new program to fit your needs if the existing programs don’t fit your needs.

At Enterprise State Community College, you will be taught to design, develop, test, and document programs. Several of the programming languages that you will receive hands-on training in include C#, Java, Ruby-on-Rails, Google Go, and Swift. You will also be taught how to use MS Visual Studio, Eclipse, and Java NetBeans. Beyond the programs and languages that you will be taught, you will also learn several key skills for your future in Computer Programming. You will learn how to think critically and logically and solve problems.

The public junior college system of Alabama was established in 1963 through the efforts of Governor George C. Wallace and the Alabama Legislature. Enterprise was selected as the site for one of the original twelve state junior colleges. Area citizens and civic groups raised money for the purchase of a 100-acre campus site, donated library materials, and provided a number of scholarships— thus beginning a history of college and community cooperation for which Enterprise State Community College is noted.

The mission of Enterprise State Community College, including the Alabama Aviation College, is to improve our communities by providing students with excellent opportunities to further their education and enter the workforce.

To prepare our students to learn, to work, and to create a better community as a leading community college.
