Mobile devices are the computers that we carry with us at all times. Our mobile device are our source for news and entertainment, our method of getting around, the way we record experiences, and is our conduit to the rest of the world. However, we use this computer in different ways than we use any other computer. Our interactions with it are frequent, frequently interrupted, and becoming ever more necessary. Offered by the Department of Computer and Information Sciences, the Certificate in Mobile Application Development will introduce students to advanced concepts in application development for mobile devices. Students will learn to leverage the various novel components found in modern mobile devices such as sensors, wireless communication, and global navigation systems, to build applications that are aware of and act based on their environment. Students will learn to work in teams to design and implement complex applications and learn how to address challenges in hardware and user interfaces by incorporating software design and user-interaction design principles.
