Advanced Application Development, Certificate of Advanced Study

The Advanced Application Development Certificate of Advanced Study (CAS) is designed for students interested in a broad range of advanced topics in software engineering and its relevant areas (e.g., databases) at the graduate level. The certificate focuses on preparing students for the software engineering workforce upon graduation. The skills and knowledge acquired through the composite courses will better prepare students for the technical and scientific aspects of software engineering.

Students may complete only one CAS from the Department of Computer Science. Students who wish to pursue an additional CAS within the department must complete an additional 6 units of coursework to ensure that at least 12 units are exclusive to each certificate. The additional 6 units must be approved by the Program Coordinator.
