Show Technology — Date Processing Technology — Data Processing The following courses outside the Department of Data Processing are required of all Data Processing majors. Accounting 1, 2 Elementary Accounting Accounting 10 Managerial Accounting Math 21 College Algebra Journalism 126 Technical Writing One upper division statistics course (Psych. 181 suggested) In addition to the above the student must satisfy the college general education requirements. In doing this, it is suggested that the student take the following courses: Economics 5 & 6 Geography 1 Physics 5 Courses of Instruction A four-year technical program designed to qualify a student at the associate programmer level or as an associate systems analyst. Students completing the four-year program will also fill a minor requirement of their choice and the general education requirement. 1. Concepts of Electronic Data Processing—A general course designed to explore the history of data processing, concepts of data representation for machine handling, flowcharting and stored- program logic, data file manipulation, characteristics of machine- oriented and problem-oriented programming languages, and computer hardware and software features. Designed for the student having no prior data processing experience or training. Five lectures. A W S Su (5) Crittenden, Lewis 13. R.P.G.
