The Graduate Certificate in Software Development is designed for students who do not have an undergraduate degree related to computing or for students who completed a computing degree many years ago.  The certificate covers foundational computer science topics that would prepare a student for a position as a software developer or for completing a master’s degree in computer-related disciplines.  The certificate may be pursued concurrently with a related graduate degree program at UNC Charlotte.  Courses taken in this graduate certificate can be applied toward the M.S. in Information Technology  degree.
