Software Engineering Technology will provide students with three years worth of training in designing, developing and maintaining software systems. During this time, students will learn modern programming languages, design and algorithm concepts, data management tools and modern software engineering methodologies. The Software Engineering Technology program will also expose students to a solid knowledge of systems integration, enterprise programming, mobile computing and software security specialization. To round out the technical focus of the curriculum, the Software Engineering Technology program will include two software development projects. These real-world business applications will require students to utilize all the technical, systems and business skills acquired during their studies to build higher quality software.
