New Data Science program offered this spring at Camden County College
Camden County College is now offering a new Data Science program designed to prepare students for a career in Data Science and Data Analytics. The new program is the first of its kind in New Jersey.
Topics covered in the new program include data acquisition in both structured and unstructured formats, data security, ethical responsibility, and effective communication of informed tactical and strategic objectives. The curriculum also covers cleaning, modeling, visualization, and analysis of data. Using a hands-on, applied approach, students in the program will learn to identify patterns and relationships in large data sets and to resolve questions and problems through data driven decisions.
“CCC’s Data Science program will prepare you to enter a career in the growing field of data science with the skills sought after by today’s most innovative companies,” said Camden County College President Donald Borden. “With the highest selection of programs, the most available transfer options, and one of the lowest tuitions in the region, CCC is your best choice.”
Program graduates will develop solid analytical reasoning, critical thinking and technical skills to analyze and present data to enhance understanding and decision-making. They will learn to work independently or as a member of a team with modern technical tools to accomplish data life cycle project goals and meet deadlines. They will also gain an appreciation for ethical decision-making principles for the analysis, management and presentation of data.
CCC’s courses for the Associate in Applied Science Degree in Data Science will be offered beginning on January 20. To learn more, visit the Data Science program page. For additional information, contact Professor Joseph Diaco at jdiaco@camdencc.edu
Spring 2021 semester mix of online and in-person classes
Camden County College President Donald A. Borden announced that spring 2021 for-credit lecture, workforce development, and noncredit courses will continue to be offered online, with many nursing, health sciences, lab, and studio courses offered through a hybrid mix of in-person and remote courses.
“Camden County College continues to monitor the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on College operations,” Borden said. “Our foremost commitment remains to ensure the health and safety of our students, faculty, staff and community members as we gradually reintegrate onto our campuses and instructional sites.”
For the spring 2021 semester, lecture sections will be offered in a combination of synchronous course delivery (instructors and students meet at the same time online) and asynchronous course delivery (materials and assignments are prepared in advance and available online over the course of the semester), allowing students to achieve their educational goals in a learning format that best fits their schedule.
Spring semester courses containing both lecture and lab instructional components will be offered in a hybrid course format, allowing for limited in-person instruction in keeping with the Governor’s restart plan and CDC standards.
“Because the COVID-19 pandemic continues to be fluid, campus restart conditions will evolve and may change,” Borden said. “The College is prepared to reassess and readjust our approach to spring instruction should circumstances dictate and as we receive updated direction from the Governor.”
Registration for spring 2021 courses begins on November 2.

CCC Athletic Program ranked third nationwide
Congratulations Cougars!
(Blackwood, NJ) – Camden County College’s Athletic program placed third in the nation for the NJCAA Non-Scholarship Division. The National Alliance of Two Year College Athletic Administrators (NATYCAA) have released the final 2019-20 Daktronics Cup standings giving the CCC Cougars 72 points for the season.
“Words can’t begin to describe how proud we are of our student-athletes, coaches, staff and Camden County College Administration,” said CCC Director of Athletics William J. Banks. “The highest finish in the history of the college is because of the continued support from all parties! Receiving this National Award is truly a team effort from top to bottom!

Fall 2020 semester mix of online and
in-person classes
(Blackwood, NJ) – Camden County College President Donald A. Borden announced that most fall 2020 for-credit, workforce development, and noncredit courses will be offered online or remotely, with many nursing, health sciences, lab, and studio courses offered in-person subject to state approval and adherence to safety protocols recommended by the health care community.
“As we continue to monitor COVID-19 and its impact on College operations, we remain acutely aware of how the pandemic will affect campus re-entry and fall 2020 semester instruction.” Borden said. “Our primary responsibility is to ensure the health and safety of our students, faculty, staff and community members as we gradually reintegrate onto our campuses and instructional sites. Public safety and security measures, including CDC standards for access, wellness monitoring, and social distancing will guide our fall teaching strategy.”
Following an announcement from Governor Murphy permitting phased re-entry for higher education, the College continues to prepare instructional plans for the fall semester. A Return to Campus task force is actively developing an array of re-entry strategies. Among contingency planning is a Curriculum and Instruction subgroup comprised of Academic Affairs faculty and administrators. The task force has explored alternative teaching approaches from various perspectives including space, classroom and laboratory resources, and how class meetings could be safely and effectively managed in the fall.
“Ultimately, unrestricted face-to-face instruction for lecture course sections is not achievable for the fall 2020 semester, even with carefully-staged sequencing of students, rotating class meeting days and times, and essential social distancing and sanitation protocols.” Borden said. “The burden placed on students, faculty members, facilities personnel, housekeeping, and our Public Safety staff would prove not only unmanageable, but unsafe.”
For the fall 2020 semester, all lecture course sections will be offered in an online modality. Those courses containing both lecture and lab instructional components will convert to a hybrid
course modality, allowing for limited in-person instruction in keeping with the Governor’s plan and CDC standards.
Sequenced re-entry for in-person lab and practicum courses that could not be completed for the spring 2020 semester will have first preference when campuses reopen. A prioritized re-entry timeline for staging in-person fall lab and practicum instruction is likewise in preparation for students’ return to campus.
Because the COVID-19 pandemic continues to be fluid, re-entry details will evolve and could change. The College is prepared to reassess and readjust our approach to fall teaching modalities should circumstances dictate. Registration for the fall semester is taking place now at www.camdencc.edu/fall.
Camden County College, located in Blackwood, Camden and Cherry Hill, is one of the largest community colleges in New Jersey and ranks among the top nationwide in terms of associate degree graduates and workforce training.

Virtual instruction starting March 30
March 12, 2020 – In order to ensure the health and well-being of students, faculty, and staff, along with the larger community we serve, Camden County College will temporarily move classes to remote instruction until further notice.
Classes will be suspended at 2pm on Saturday, March 14 for student Spring Break, which has been extended through March 29 to facilitate the transition to virtual instruction. When classes resume on Monday, March 30, students will attend classes remotely.
“Camden County College will continue to provide essential student services including registration, computer labs, and tutoring,” said Don Borden, President of Camden County College. “The College has been preparing for the impact of the COVID-19 for several weeks, and will use the extended break to finalize our increased webinar and distance learning capabilities to meet the needs of the College community.”
Students will be notified how to access their classes by their instructors. Accommodations will be made for students without access to a computer or the internet.
Utilizing remote instruction for classes allows the College to balance the need for continuation of essential services with the health of the College community. The move also follows guidelines established for social distancing by decreasing the population on our campuses and instructional locations.
Camden County College encourages students, faculty, and staff to avoid unnecessary travel, especially to areas with high concentrations of COVID-19 reports, and to continue healthy best practices such as handwashing and social distancing. All College-related travel has been canceled.
