CIS 193 Introduction to LINUX

3 Credit Hour(s)

This course is designed to prepare students for the COMPTIA LINUX+ Certification Exam. Linux is a relatively new open source system software that is becoming increasingly popular for use on business Web Servers, email servers, application servers, and even personal desktop systems. This course is designed to prepare students to take the certification exam; however, it is not a substitute for the certification exam. A basic foundation in computer hardware, networking concepts, as well as familiarity with desktop and server operating systems such as Windows 2000 or Unix would be helpful. Programming experience of any type would also be an asset but is not explicitly required.

Prerequisite(s): BIT 1150 or equivalent introductory computer class, or permission from instructor.
