Web Technology Program Description
Prince George’s Community College is proposing substantial modifications to update the 18-credit certificate program in Web Technology. This program currently resides in the <br>Technology, Engineering, and Construction Department, and the Sciences, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) Division, as part of our Technology Guided Pathway. In the Web Technology Certificate program, students learn to use various <br>Internet and World Wide Web-based environments and technologies in the web development industry. Students learn to apply logic to analyze, design, and program using web programming languages. Students utilize file management and information technology tools as well as learn how to design and maintain a professional website that includes professional digital communication. Additionally, students use client- and <br>server-side programming languages and applications and learn object-oriented programming concepts through robust hands-on practice. The Web Technology Certificate prepares students for positions as web developer, web designer, web content <br>manager, and web programmer. All of the courses in this certificate can be applied to the Information Technology A.A.S. degree program.
