The Bachelor of Applied Science in Software Development is a degree to provide a solid foundation of software development skills. It consists mainly of 45 credit hours of computer science classes: the core computer science classes, plus several additional computer science courses selected so as to have greatest practical applicability. The degree will qualify students for mid-level programming jobs with good long-term prospects but not necessarily technical leadership roles.
