(Formerly ITB162) This course provides students with classroom and laboratory experience in current and emerging networking technology that empowers them to enter employment or further education and training in the computer-networking field. Instruction includes, but is not limited to, networking, network terminology and protocols, network standards, local-area networks (LANs), wide-area networks (WANs), Open System Interconnection (OSI) models, cabling, cabling tools, routers, router programming, Ethernet, Internet Protocol (IP) addressing, and network standards. The course particularly emphasizes the use of decision-making and problem-solving techniques in applying science, mathematics, communication, and social studies concepts to solve networking problems. In addition, students learn the proper care, maintenance, and use of networking software, tools, and equipment and all local, state, and federal safety, building, and environmental codes and regulations. Prerequisite: Applications/Concepts (CIT110). For additional information and/or a course syllabus contact CITDept@bhcc.mass.edu.

This first course in computer information systems development introduces students to the tools and techniques available to the systems analyst and designer. The course covers phases of the systems development cycle with emphasis on analysis and design. A major component of the course includes an understanding of structured analysis and design techniques and the transition from structured analysis to Object Oriented Analysis. The course covers Language (UML) and Entity Relationship Diagrams (ERD). The department strongly suggests that students complete or take concurrently College Writing I (ENG111). Prerequisites: Applications/Concepts (CIT110) or Introduction to Computer Science & Object Oriented Programming (CIT120) and at least two other CIT courses. For additional information and/or a course syllabus contact CITDepartment@bhcc.mass.edu.

This course covers an introduction to computer programming using Visual Basic. The course provides students with "hands-on" exposure to object-oriented programming techniques andemphasizes programming logic, using the event-driven components of Visual Basic. Using laboratory case assignments, students plan, design, and create their own Windows applications. They learn how to create a user interface, set control properties, design the logic structures of the project and write the associated Visual Basic code. Prerequisite: Applications/Concepts (CIT110) or Introduction to Computer Science & Object Oriented Programming (CIT120) or equivalent experience or permission of the department chair. For additional information and/or a course syllabus contact CITDepartment@bhcc.mass.edu.
