Program Overview

The Mobile Design and Development Program is designed to train students to design and develop mobile applications. Students develop a comprehensive understanding of core design principles and key development strategies, including developing for both the Android and iOS (Apple) mobile devices. Students also gain a basic understanding of database technology used for providing data for apps.

The program trains individuals to become mobile developers. Students learn design theory as well as gain experience in programming for multiple mobile platforms. The training is geared toward students with no experience, but is an excellent opportunity for people changing careers or who wish to take individual courses, to stay current in their existing jobs.
