  << Accelerated Degree Completion Program for Adult Learners

BACHELOR OF SCIENCE IN INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY

Moving from introductory material in networking and programming through applications in web development and database management, the Information Technology major emphasizes the role of the IT manager in needs assessment and project management. Responding to the expectations of modern workplaces for technologies that are integrated with the needs and responsibilities of employees, the program culminates in an applied internship.
