Full-Stack Web Development skillsets are in high demand in today's global economy. A full-stack developer is a software developer who is proficient in both front-end and back-end web development, demonstrating they can work on all aspects of a website or application, from the user interface to the server-side logic and databases. Full-Stack Developers possess a wide range of skills and are capable of handling the entire development lifecycle. This degree will help a student build the necessary skillsets to become a full-stack web developer.

Students will learn front-end development creating the user interface (UI) and user experience (UX) using technologies like HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, along with frameworks like React, Angular, or Vue.js. In addition, students will be exposed to back-end development through building the server-side logic, APIs, and database interactions using languages like Python, Java, and Node.js.

Plus, students will also gain practical knowledge and application related to database management through designing, implementing, and managing databases to store and retrieve data efficiently, using technologies like MySQL and MongoDB. Along the way, students will also learn how to perform integration and testing to ensure seamless integration between the front-end and back-end components while conducting thorough testing to ensure the application's stability and reliability.

Student must achieve a “C” or better in any required Full-Stack Web Development course before being advanced to any subsequent Full-Stack Web Development course in the curriculum progression. In order to graduate from this curriculum, the students must meet all college academic requirements plus achieve a grade of “C” or better in each Full-Stack Web Development course.

This is a career program, designed to enable students to seek employment at the program’s completion. Successful completion of this program qualifies a student to apply for an Associate of Applied Science degree in Full-Stack Web Development.
