A course in entrepreneurship is included to promote the entrepreneurial aspect of mobile application development. The credits earned for this certificate may be applied to an associate of applied business degree in mobile device application development.
This certificate is designed for those with previous professional software development experience (including web design) or those with an existing AAB or BS degree that includes significant coursework in programming (Java, C#, or C++) and web design.
