Professor Pinchot assisting a student The Web Development major is designed for students interested in the technical aspects of Internet and web technologies. The curriculum is focused on computer science and information system courses (such as web design, web programming, and computer network security) with additional emphasis on business fundamentals. The primary goal of the program is to provide students with a solid background in web technologies and related business goals, in order to prepare students for employment in the web development industry. Emphasis will be placed on development of problem-solving skills and issues surrounding the development of E-Commerce web applications. The capstone course of the program will be the Professional Web Portfolio course, which will focus on team-based project development and allow students to build working projects that they can compile into a portfolio of work suitable to present to potential employers.
