Introduction

The Internet Studies Center (ISC) provides a number of courses leading to a minor in web development called the Internet Resource Creation and Management Minor. Students in any field of study can learn or advance their skills in web development through this minor.

Why Consider an Internet Resource and Creation Management Minor?

The Internet Resource and Creation Management Minor is designed to teach students how to create websites using current tools and technology. The minor also includes required coursework from the Communications and English or Journalism departments to help students develop their technical writing abilities. The minor will complement courses taken in a regular degree program.

Participation in a professional internship will provide an opportunity to enhance project management, web development and team communication skills. With the minor from the Internet Studies Center and a four-year degree, students will have knowledge needed to contribute and adapt to today’s rapidly changing technical environment.
