Web Design & Development
Designers and developers work within a variety of settings to gather
information and program content and design a site that’s effective
and easy to use. The Web Design & Development degree offers
targeted coursework in website design, production, programming,
applications and maintenance, as well as the practical hands-on
experience needed to understand the technology. The program
includes curriculum specific to graphic and web design, web
development, computer science and computer networking. The
curriculum also covers languages and software including HTML,
JavaScript, PHP, CSS and MySQL. Students not only learn instruction
in web page design and composition, but also develop a portfolio
and participate in a real-world project that moves them to the top of
the class when employers seek candidates.
Web Design & Development is a Performance-Based Education (PBE)
program.
Web Design & Development is 100% online. Students will be
required to take the Student Online Learning Orientation course
(SOLO 100).
