The instructor should be able to teach and guide persons interested in working for a government office or in the private sector, including healthcare, environmental and engineering firms, or service providers. The program provides students a solid foundation in both procedural and declarative programming (i.e., software development); the skills and knowledge needed to translate organizations’ data into meaningful, high-quality information and systems (i.e., database management and visualization); and for working on business support activities. In addition to technical skills, students are taught critical thinking and collaboration to understand the roles of programmers, developers, and business analysts. The program prepares students to quickly move into the workplace as an effective employee.
