Emphasizes a practicum and interest-based specialization-oriented degree.?This means that there is a greater emphasis on application, deployment, configuration and development than on theory and principles. Students can choose to specialize in a sub-area of information technology such as Cybersecurity or Digital Forensics.
Actively responds to emerging technology trends and diversifications in information systems.?The technology that manages information changes quickly as practitioners attempt to address real-world problems in industry, government, research, and education. This program will respond to changes that reflect trends.?
Requires real-world experience by participating in an internship.?As part of the required curriculum IT students are required to participate in information technology related internship. This exposes students to what it is like to work in the IT industry.
