This two-year post-baccalaureate diploma program specializes in web and mobile application design and development, covering the entire process from initial concept to final deployment. The curriculum integrates visual design principles (such as typography, color theory, and graphic elements) with technical skills in client-side and server-side programming, UX design, and project coordination. WMDD courses are scheduled Monday through Saturday. Applicants select either the designer or developer track upon enrollment, with the flexibility to switch focus before the second term begins.

Throughout the program, learners work together on significant projects while also developing practical applications, crafting professional digital portfolios, and establishing valuable industry contacts. Graduates will acquire the precise design and technical competencies that employers demand. The program structure includes four academic terms followed by an optional practical work placement opportunity.

This comprehensive two-year post-degree diploma concentrates on creating web and mobile applications, guiding students through every development phase from conception to launch. The coursework blends artistic fundamentals (including typography, color principles, and visual elements) with programming techniques, user experience strategies, and project oversight.

Participants will undertake multiple projects, working both independently and collaboratively. They'll create practical solutions for real-world scenarios, assemble professional online portfolios, and cultivate connections within the tech industry. The program comprises four academic semesters of classroom instruction, with an additional optional work term to gain hands-on professional experience.
