Emergency Alert
UDC Operating Remotely on Friday, Jan. 30

The University of the District of Columbia’s academic and administrative offices will conduct business remotely on Friday, Jan. 30. All on-campus activities, including athletic-related activities, are cancelled.

Campuses will reopen on Monday, Feb. 2.

Staff: Contact your immediate supervisor with questions or for further instruction regarding remote work expectations. 

Faculty: Reach out to your immediate supervisor and/or the dean for questions and further instruction regarding the transition to emergency remote instruction (ERI).  The Center for the Advancement of Learning (CAL) is available to support faculty with instructional continuity, including support for Blackboard, Zoom, Webex and other teaching and learning technologies.

Consultation Request Form

For learning technology tools and on-demand faculty resources, please visit CAL’s website.

Students: Due to inclement weather, the university will be closed to face-to-face operations. Instruction will be moved to emergency remote, including synchronous and asynchronous methods. Certain laboratory, clinical, and other hands-on classes for which in-person instruction is a requirement may necessitate a make-up lesson, but every effort will be made to pursue virtual learning to the extent possible. Where synchronous virtual instruction is intended, published class meeting times must be observed so that students’ schedules are not disrupted.

The safety and security of our students, faculty, staff, and the broader community remain our top priority. We will continue to provide updates regarding the status of the university’s academic and administrative offices as conditions change.

Please continue to check our website and social media channels for the latest information.

If you have any safety concerns, contact OPSEM at 202-274-5050. For all immediate emergencies, call 911.

Thank you for your continued dedication to our students and to UDC’s mission.

Program Overview

Associate of Science in Computer Science

The primary goal of the Associate of Science in the Computer Science program is to prepare students to use core elements of technology to create projects that effectively communicate applications in the field of computer science. This includes students developing problem-solving and critical thinking skills and can use these skills to solve business-related problems. Students will be able to apply logical skills and mathematical knowledge to analyze problems and develop and implement general solutions to them in the computer science discipline. It also aims to ensure that DC residents obtain higher portions of technology jobs, provide stable paths for persons not currently positioned to pursue bachelor’s degree programs and build the pathway toward becoming professionals in computer technology.

Academic Preparedness

UDC recognizes the important connection between student success and academic preparedness. Depending on placement test scores and/or equivalent college coursework, students may be required to complete co-requisite courses in English.  Only credits earned for the college-level portion of the co-requisite course pairing count towards degree completion requirements.
