Frequently Asked Questions

What degree should I get for web development?

Choosing your degree is an important step in your career journey. This can set the tone for the knowledge and skills you can receive, as well as what companies may offer you a job.

Liberty’s online web development degree can help you meet your professional goals and pursue the job you want. Here’s why:

Credibility – Liberty University is accredited by SACSCOC, the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges. This means you’re earning your degree from a school that is well-respected and has met rigorous accreditation standards.
Experienced faculty – Your major courses are taught by professionals in the IT industry. These individuals have years of experience in the field, and they’re ready to share what they have learned with you.
Flexibility – Because your program can be completed 100% online, you can remain invested in your career, family, and other commitments while working on your degree.

What is the difference between an information technology degree and an information systems degree?

An information technology degree and an information systems degree are very similar. Information systems typically deal with the entire system of information (including data, business relations, and processes). On the other hand, with an information technology degree, you will focus more on the data that an information system provides.

At Liberty, you study both the highly technical coding aspects of information technology and the business, people, and information processes involved with an information systems degree. With an education like this, you can be well-rounded and stand out from the competition.

What is the difference between a programming degree and a computer information systems degree?

There are a few differences between a computer information systems (CIS) degree and a programming degree. In many CIS programs, the main goal is to develop new solutions to meet urgent business issues.

At Liberty, you can gain much of the insight that a CIS major would have to offer since our professors offer years of experience in the business and IT worlds. Additionally, with an understanding of coding languages and web development, you are able to create and implement what many CIS majors only talk about.
