Thanks to two courses CIS 221 (Fundamentals of Hardware and Software) and CIS 250 (Networks), I have been able to grasp a moderate amount of knowledge regarding the subject matters. In other words, I am confident that I can understand the basic concepts and jargon of the subject, but not enough to work as a Hardware/Network professional.
I have been focusing a great amount of my time on improving my programming skills. I have earned the proficiency in various programming languages, such as Python, Java, HTML, CSS, MySQL, and PHP, and programming using the object-oriented method as well as various algorithms and data structures. I am most proficient using Python and Java, and I believe that these competencies will help me greatly in my career goal to become a software developer.
As for web development, I well-proficient to work on developing a website's front-end. I am also capable of developing a website's back-end but with only a moderate level of confidence.
As a double-major in Computer Science and Global Business, I believe that I am well-versed in my knowledge of the business world and information technology in business organizations.
Overall, I am greatly grateful for my whole Columbia College education experience. I was able to learn a great amount and diversity of knowledge (both educational and professional) from great professors and mentors who I would not be able to find anywhere else. However, if possible, I would still like to have been able to taken some more CIS courses that are more modern (like Virtual Reality) or advanced (like Artificial Intelligence) and at a faster pace (I felt like I could have learned much more from our CIS professors had the pace of the class been a bit faster).
