Information Technology
Degree pathways are designed for the student who plans to transfer to the University of Central Florida as a junior to complete a Bachelor’s degree after completing an Associate in Arts degree at Valencia. Students who plan to transfer to a limited-access program are responsible for completing the specific requirements of the institution to which they will transfer as completion of this degree pathway does not guarantee admission to an upper division limited-access program.
This degree pathway includes the following Common Program Prerequisites (CPPs) which are required for transfer to the Information Technology major at the University of Central Florida and/or any Florida public institution:
| CGS 2545C | DATABASE MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS | 3 |
| COP 2800C | JAVA PROGRAMMING 1 | 3 |
| COP 2805C | ADVANCED JAVA PROGRAMMING 1 | 3 |
| COT 2104C | FOUNDATIONS OF DISCRETE MATHEMATICS | 3 |
| ECO 2013 | PRINCIPLES OF ECONOMICS-MACRO | 3 |
| MAC 1114 | COLLEGE TRIGONOMETRY (GR) | 3 |
| PHY 2053C | COLLEGE PHYSICS I WITH ALGEBRA AND TRIGONOMETRY | 4 |
| PSY 2012 | GENERAL PSYCHOLOGY | 3 |
| STA 2023 | STATISTICAL METHODS (GR) | 3 |
| 1 | COP 2800C JAVA PROGRAMMING and COP 2805C ADVANCED JAVA PROGRAMMING will satisfy the requirement for COP 3330 OBJECT ORIENTED PROGRAMMING at UCF. |
CPPs may also satisfy some general education requirements.
Start Right - Pathway Plan
You are encouraged to develop an education plan that includes the courses required for your A.A. degree and the CPPs needed for transfer to your intended bachelor's major. For course sequencing recommendations, you can create an education plan by logging into Atlas, clicking on the LifeMap tab and clicking My Education Plan. Once you have created your plan, you are encouraged to review it with an advisor.
Financial Aid
In order to be eligible for and calculated in your enrollment status for financial aid, courses for which you are enrolled must count toward your Associate in Arts degree (36 credits of general education and 24 credits of electives). CPPs may not be calculated in your enrollment status for financial aid purposes if you took other course work outside of the Associate in Arts degree requirements (examples include prior course work from prerequisites, changing a major, and transfer course work).
