About the program
Software, networksand information security
Across nine four-month terms you move from algorithm design to production systems: programming, databases, operating systems, wired and wireless networks, routing protocols, server management and information security.
The final terms shift the focus from code to the organization: ERP systems, productive project management, strategic competitiveness and a professional placement, so you graduate knowing which business problem every line you write answers.
Graduate profile
The engineeryou will become
By the end of nine terms you won't just know how to code — you'll know how to keep the whole system standing, from the database to the network that connects it. These are the four capabilities you leave ICES with.
Software development
You design algorithms and object-oriented programs, build applications and put them through a testing process before they go live.
Networks and operating systems
You install and administer wired and wireless networks, configure routing protocols, manage servers and maintain the operating systems underneath.
Information security
You identify risks, apply security controls over information and infrastructure, and respond when something goes wrong.
Data and information systems
You model and administer databases, design information systems and turn that data into decisions for the organization.
