It suits people who want hands-on experience in real jobs while learning, and who prefer the structured engineering approach to software development.This program combines computer science and business study, so you learn both how to build software systems and how organizations work. Unlike a straight computer science degree, you'll take business courses alongside your programming and technical work.
