Program: AS-25282

The Associate in Science in Web Design and Development degree program prepares students to use a variety of software, programming, and scripting languages with web design principles to create functional web sites for marketing and e-commerce. Students engage in practical, hands-on, real-world projects using current software, tools, and equipment to produce cutting-edge projects that function effectively and efficiently.

The courses offered represent a comprehensive curriculum that explores business and technical analyses, creativity, problem solving, user-interface design theories, web standards, and coding practices. More specifically, students effectively apply project planning, technical communication and documentation, web design, programming, and security tool implementation. Projects and hands-on training allow students to build expertise and technical skills to design and develop dynamic, data-driven websites.

Graduates of this program possess a strong foundation in web and application development that empowers them to adapt and respond to changing trends in web and programming technologies and platforms.

Certain courses in this program require placement at the college level or satisfaction of developmental education requirements in reading, writing, and mathematics.
