Mimi Opkins

I am a part-time lecturer here at Cal State Long Beach. I've been teaching part-time for about 28 years both here at Long Beach and Goldenwest College in Huntington Beach.
This semester I am teaching:
CECS 100 - Critical Thinking
CECS 105 - Introduction to Computer Engineering and Computer Science
CECS 174 - Introduction to Programming and Problem Solving and
CECS 323 - Database Fundamentals .

I worked full-time as a Developer, Analyst, Architect and Team Lead for various local companies for 30 years.

I have a Bachelor's Degree in Mathematics/Computer Science and a Master's Degree in Computer Science both from this college.

My interests outside of school include web development and reading. I especially enjoy Java and Perl programming along with a renewed interest in Calculus.
