Associate in Applied Science in Computer Information Technology – Secure Software Development Track

Courses in Secure Software Development

All students will study a variety of introductory courses consisting of HTML, networking, Windows and Linux operating systems, security, hardware, programming logic and Microsoft Project. With this strong foundation, students can go into depth by selecting a track for specialization.

Tracks include IT Support Technician, Network Administration and Secure Software Development. This degree is designed so that an individual may complete one of the related certificate programs (IT Support Technician Certificate and Network Administrator Certificate), and then complete the Computer Information Technology Associate’s degree.

Individuals may also enroll directly in the Computer Information Technology program without any prior coursework. The two-year course of study culminates in the internship which provides valuable on-the-job experience. Many of the courses prepare students for industry-related certifications including CompTIA’s A+ and Network+ and Security+ certifications, Microsoft’s MCITP (Microsoft Certified IT Professional) and MTS certification, Cisco’s CCNA and CCENT certification.
