Whether you are just starting out in college or you are a seasoned IT professional looking to update your skills, the Computer Science Department at City College of San Francisco has the right program for you! We offer courses in:

  • Computer Programming
  • Unix/Linux
  • Internet Programming
  • Databases
  • Information Science
  • Multimedia

You can take just a course or two, pursue a certificate, get an Associate's Degree, or transfer to a four-year school.

The certificate programs are designed to meet the needs of students who want 1) to obtain entry-level employment, 2) to increase their opportunities to advance in their current positions, or 3) to change the kind of work they do currently. Certificate programs make it possible for a student to demonstrate specialization in the areas such as computer programming, multimedia, LAMP and Unix administration.  Certificates are often a good choice for a student who already has a degree in a different discipline, but wants to gain credentials in CS.
