This program, jointly offered by the Department of Mathematics and Computing and the Bissett School of Business, provides a forward-looking combination of computer and business courses. Throughout eight academic semesters and up to three cooperative work terms, students will develop the expertise required by computing professionals. The program has been developed by following well-recognized international curriculum standards from the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) and the IEEE Computer Society (IEEE-CS) as well as through continuous consultation with senior managers from Calgary businesses. The end result is a degree that meets the needs of business as well as the needs of graduates who must adapt to change in the future. Employers are looking for computer professionals with a wide range of skills and abilities. Besides technical skills, employees also need solid business knowledge, the ability to work effectively in teams, a willingness to think creatively, and to communicate effectively using speech, text and images. This degree prepares students for this environment through courses in computer science, business, communications, and general education. The program concentrates on the practical application of computer systems in a business environment. Students acquire a solid foundation in programming, systems analysis and design, Internet development, hardware and networking support and in-depth knowledge of standard business practices. Students broaden their learning by extending it to the workplace during a minimum of one, and up to three, cooperative work terms where they will gain hands-on work experience. With this blend of abilities, graduates are well-suited to work in large or small companies, act as self-employed consultants, or start their own businesses. Graduates may expect to find work as programmers or junior analysts, as a user and technical support specialists, as web developers, as database developers, or in one of many other IT-based jobs.<br>CAREER POSSIBILITIES<br>Computer systems/business analyst, Network or database administrator, Web/mobile application developer, IT support manager<br>Application architect, Systems administrator
