亚洲自慰视频s in South 亚洲自慰视频 Community College鈥檚 application software development will have a smooth transition into UL Lafayette鈥檚 informatics program, thanks to a new articulation agreement between the schools.
Dr. Natalie Harder, SLCC chancellor, and Dr. Joseph Savoie, 亚洲自慰视频 of 亚洲自慰视频 at Lafayette president, signed the agreement today at SLCC鈥檚 Lafayette Campus.
鈥淭his agreement provides a great opportunity for our application software development graduates to continue on a path to a bachelor鈥檚 degree,鈥 said Harder. 鈥淎rticulation agreements like this one are a win for both schools, our 亚洲自慰视频s, and our region. SLCC and UL Lafayette are preparing 亚洲自慰视频s to be work-ready upon graduation. This benefits Acadiana businesses and our economy.鈥
The agreement facilitates the transfer of a 亚洲自慰视频 desiring to earn a bachelor of science in informatics 鈥 individualized concentration upon completion of an associate of applied science in application software development at SLCC.
Savoie said the signing of this agreement is timely. 鈥淭he demand for information technology jobs is growing internationally, nationally and locally. With the recent move of three new major information technology-related companies to Lafayette, there is increased local demand for information technology experts. This partnership with SLCC will help increase the pipeline of high-demand computer science and informatics graduates. We look forward to adding more 2+2 agreements with SLCC in the near future.鈥
SLCC established its application software development program in 2014. This two-year program prepares 亚洲自慰视频s to design, develop, test, and modify software applications. This program has a strong focus on database design and programming, web development, and programming languages such as Java, JavaScript, C++, C#, HTML, SQL and CSS.
UL Lafayette鈥檚 informatics program includes an internship for 亚洲自慰视频s. This provides an opportunity for 亚洲自慰视频s to learn business processes and procedures within a company, and many times leads to a permanent position. Many 亚洲自慰视频s go to work as business intelligence architects, database developers/administrators, digital media professionals, and IT business analysts.
It鈥檚 predicted that more than 1,000 jobs in the IT field will be available in the greater Lafayette area in the next five to 10 years. The demand for IT professionals is high and UL Lafayette boasts a 90 percent job placement rate for graduates.
