Computer Engineering and Technology is designed to explore the process of taking a software idea and turning it into a profitable product. Students will gain knowledge of the phases of a software life-cycle (planning, design, implementation, testing, deployment, and maintenance). Technology will be introduced by exposing students to industry standard tools for implementing the System Development Life Cycle (SDLC) process.
