Programming and Applications Development

Catalog description

This course challenges students to think beyond the code and design impactful software solutions tailored to real-world business needs. Through hands -on, project-based learning, students will explore the core principles of application development — from user interface design and event-driven programming to data management, debugging, and software architecture. Rather than focusing on a single programming language, this course emphasizes problem -solving, adaptability, and the ability to translate business challenges into practical, scalable applications. Students will build a range of applications that reflect enterprise demands — such as data-driven tools, point-of-sale systems, workflow automation, and interactive dashboards. By the end of the course, students will be equipped with a developer’s mindset, a solid grasp of foundational programming concepts, and the skills to turn ideas into working solutions. They'll also gain an appreciation for algorithms, system design, and th e critical thinking required throughout the software development lifecycle. Number Name Credits
