Web Design and Development

Web designers, UX designers, and web developers are problem solvers, creative engineers, and skilled professionals whose work fills the screens that are all around us.

In our Web Design and Development program, you’ll learn to create compelling webpages, screens, and interfaces, and code them to streamline the user experience on tablets, mobile devices, desktops and laptops. You’ll develop skills in both the design and programming aspects of the web.

You’ll study front-end basics like layout design, typography, photography, color theory, digital imaging, and apply that learning to design sites for everything from mobile devices to desktop computers. Learn to create content management systems using server side code to retrieve dynamic data. Design interfaces for a wide world of screens and environments. Write code to power highly interactive systems and applications. Animate screen elements to enhance the user experience. And diagnose and troubleshoot code errors.

You’ll learn HTML5 and CSS3, interactivity, and JavaScript, and build the back-end skills you’ll need to make websites powerful, using XML, JSON, and MySQL languages. And you’ll learn to use the latest technologies to streamline development, including SASS, Bootstrap 3, jQuery, WordPress, Drupal, Laravel, Angular 2, and GitHub. 

You’ll build wireframes and responsive websites. Work the problems and devise the solutions. Apply everything you’ve learned to a real-world internship that can open your eyes to the realities—and opportunities—that lie ahead.

You’ll enter the workforce equipped with a personal website to showcase your work and your talents to potential employers. And enter the industry as a designer, front-end coder, back-end developer, or even go to work for yourself.
