Bachelor of Applied Science (B.A.S.)
Internet and Web Development Concentration
The B.A.S. with an Internet and Web Development concentration is a completely online degree designed to offer the working professional with a A.A.S. degree an opportunity to learn advanced Web site design and development skills. This program works as a compliment to the Community College Systems AAS degree. Students may participate as a full or part-time student and complete the degree in as little as two years.
The goal of the program is to provide students with management, leadership, critical thinking, and communication skills -- along with significant technical skills in the Web development arena -- that will broaden their career horizons, promote life-long learning, and enrich their personal and professional life.
The BAS is a 60-semester-hour program, divided into four segments:
- General Studies - 19 semester hours
In consultation with an advisor, students choose courses from the ASU General Studies list that contribute to a coherent overall curriculum that helps them meet their educational goals. General Studies include Numeracy, Lab Science, Literacy, Humanities, and Social and Behavioral Science courses, including history, culture, global awareness areas. All courses required by ASU must be upper division courses
- BAS Core - 15 semester hours
The BAS Core Curriculum focuses on management and organization, professional communication, statistical processes, and computer competencies. Students must take at least one three-semester hour course in each of these four general categories. The remaining three semester hours are devoted to a second course in one of the above areas.
- Concentration - 20 semester hours
Students devote at least 20 semester hours to the Web Publishing concentration, either choosing from set curricula, or developing a custom curriculum with the help of their advisor. Assignable Credits may be used to enhance the area of concentration.
- Assignable Credits - six (6) semester hours
Assignable Credits allow space in the curriculum for prerequisite courses some students might need to succeed in the program. Assignable credits may be used to strengthen specific capabilities, to strengthen knowledge of core areas, or can be used as elective courses. The use of Assignable Credits is worked out between the student and their advisor.
