The first two-year undergraduate computing education concentrates on the fundamentals of computer science, calculus, and discrete math. These concepts help create the foundation in Computer Science pathways. The fundamentals of computer science courses are standardized with well-known learning outcomes that guide a progression to consecutive courses in computer science. Because of these fundamentals, there is little opportunity to introduce techniques from emerging computing areas in the early stages of education, such as fuzzy logic or intelligent systems. This paper will be of potential interest to researchers and educators who are interested on introducing fuzzy logic concepts in the first two years of undergraduate education, particularly community college education of computer science education in contrast to offering senior or even graduate courses. Additionally, we discuss areas where non-traditional computer science students can benefit from best practices in fuzzy logic education in introductory computer science courses.

“…Most non-credit programmes at community colleges have narrow focuses than degree programmes and concentrate on specific skills and interests ranging from culinary arts and web design to allied healthcare and nursing programmes. In addition, many of these programmes are based on requirements of local labour markets and businesses (Tang, 2017).…”

The study examined students’ needs and satisfaction at the Kingsborough Community College in Brooklyn, NY. Purposive sampling method was used to examine the needs and satisfaction of the allied healthcare programme and the English as a Second Language programme students. Results of the focus group discussions and in-depth interviews with students and faculty members demonstrate that there is still a lot of work that needs to be done to assist non-credit students to complete their programmes. By learning the perceptions of the non-credit students, the college can make necessary changes for improvements, which ultimately will bring a higher return on investments and engagement of the non-credit student population. The needs and satisfactions of this population have to be taken seriously; whereby providing students by access to credit programmes, generating meaningful outcomes for a range of their needs, and facilitating the long-term pursuit of degree in connection to the academic departments.
