The program provides students with knowledge in the core information technologies and builds on that knowledge to create professionals who meet the business and economic needs of Central Georgia. The program is designed to produce graduates with a diversified set of skills, roles, and experiences including knowledge in Network/network administration, information assurance, media design, and application development. These knowledge areas will prepare our graduates for careers in a range of organizations, from small to large.
The courses in the program also emphasize critical thinking, problem solving, decision-making, and interpersonal and communication skills. Career success through lifelong learning and professional development is emphasized at all levels of the curriculum.
We anticipated that, a few years after graduation, our graduates will
- Assume productive roles in IT-related positions, such as network administrator, software developer, web master, systems analyst, information security officer, multimedia designer, and database administrator; and
- Pursue life-long learning enabling them to adapt and grow as organizational responsibilities change
