Software Development and Database Administration Hybrid E-Degree
Imagine the Possibilities!
The software we rely on daily owes its existence to developers. These specialists craft programs, whether for business or personal use, that form logical sequences of instructions computers can follow. In essence, software developers conceive, design, implement, and maintain programs to fulfill specific tasks and operate computers.
What can I expect?
In the Software Development and Database Administration specialization, you’ll learn 11 programming languages and become fluent in industry techniques and software relevant to software and database development, construction, and upkeep. You’ll delve into creating desktop and web applications, constructing databases from scratch, and explore security and other IT-related topics.
This specialization prioritizes hands-on learning. Throughout this 18-month program, you’ll spend about 80% of your time engaged in instructor-led hands-on projects, providing invaluable real-world experience. Numerous career opportunities await, encompassing roles such as software developer, computer programmer, database administrator, web developer, mobile application developer, and IT consultant, among others.
Looking Ahead
Our graduates also have the option to take advantage of articulation agreements with in-state and out-of-state universities, which means when a student graduates with a two-year Associate of Applied Science degree in Computer Information Systems from Lake Area Tech, they can transition to the university with two years of study that will count towards their four-year bachelor’s degree!
Why an E-Degree?
Lake Area Tech e-degrees are “hybrid” – an innovative blend of distance and on-campus learning. What’s great about that is you can keep your day job (work, raise kids) and still get a degree. With hybrid education, you get maximum flexibility to study when and where you want, but you’ll still get the chance to learn on-campus with Lake Area Tech instructors on selected projects.
