Computer Applications in Business

In this course, students will develop problem solving skills using computer applications found in a business environment. The emphasis in this course will be on spreadsheet and database applications but may also include an introduction to basic computer organization, power point, and web page development.

The course will be organized in the form of a lab experience instead of the traditional lecture format. Various tools and components of an application will be presented at the beginning of class and will include an illustration of how they are used to solve specific problems. After the short presentation,you will be assigned a problem set related to that day's topics that you are to complete in the remaining part of class. Thus, this is a very hands-on course.
