WHAT IT MEANS TO YOU:
Information technology is a critical component in most industries and sectors. America continues to suffer, however, from a
shortage of qualified IT workers with flexible and portable skills who can readily adapt and respond to changing IT demands
and processes.1
Graduates of the associate's degree program in Software Development Technology offered through the School of Information
Technology at ITT Tech may begin their careers in a variety of entry-level positions involving software development, such as
