YOUR ACADEMIC JOURNEY:
PROJECT-FOCUSED
Our academic model is simple: Learn to master technology in a project-based environment. In the tech industry, nearly all software is developed in a team, so you’ll learn how to fill different roles, meet deadlines, manage requirements, and resolve conflicts. Our three-year curriculum will prepare you for the job market. Here’s an overview of what to expect in our bachelor’s degree programs.
FRESHMAN Q1-Q3 WELCOME TO NEUMONT Start with a week-long orientation designed to prepare you for success. This orientation includes tech-focused activities created to acclimate you to Neumont’s accelerated pace and help you get to know your classmates. You’ll start in the computer science program taking general courses, including intro classes in each of the six degree programs. At the end, you’re ready to declare your major.
SOPHOMORE Q4-Q6 TIP: Neumont does not have traditional summer breaks. This helps you stay focused and graduate sooner:

DIVE INTO YOUR PROGRAM You’ve chosen your degree program, so now you’re taking core courses like Principles of Software Engineering, Modeling, and Databases. You are deeply submerged in tech. GENERAL EDUCATION—WITH A TWIST Gen Ed (yawn) has a bland reputation, but it doesn’t have to. In addition to standard Gen Eds like English, Math, and Physics, we offer geek-centric electives like 3D Printing. and Math-based Codes, Cyphers & Secrets.

JUNIOR Q7-Q9
SENIOR Q10-Q12
GO DEEPER You’re now taking upper-level courses like Virtual Systems, Game Engine Projects, Projects in User Experience Design, and Career Readiness.
PREPARE FOR LAUNCH You’ve mastered technologies like game engine development, C++, Java, C#, relational databases, virtualization, UX, AI, ethical hacking, JavaScript, 3D modeling, Agile methodologies– you’re almost ready to launch your career... Phew!
DEVELOPMENTAL PROJECTS Projects are now integrated into virtually every course you take, which means you’re building complex web interfaces, 3D games, or network security modules as homework. Think of it this way: You’re now defining and solving problems using technology–with all of those eureka moments. While a faculty member will mentor you and your team through problems, don’t expect to be handed a solution. You’ve got the skills to come up with your own way to solve it. CAPSTONE PROJECT Finish up with your Capstone Project–a required individual project that you conceive, build, and present. It’s where you get to show off all you’ve learned, and prove you’re ready to take on CAPSTONE Enterprise Projects in your final quarters. PROJECT
ENTERPRISE PROJECTS
ENTERPRISE PROJECTS During your last quarters, you’ll spend most of your time working on Enterprise Projects. Your team will work on real-world tech projects with an employer under the supervision of a faculty member. Think of it as senior projects on steroids. WRAP IT UP AND PUT A BOW ON IT Now that you’ve got the skills and experience, it’s time to write a killer résumé, finalize your portfolio, and learn how to interview and negotiate the salary you deserve. Don’t worry, you won’t have to do this on your own. We’re here to help through a course taught by dedicated Career Services faculty.

TEAM-BASED, REAL-WORLD
PROJECTS
ENTERPRISE PARTNER:
OVERSTOCK PROJECT:
At Neumont College of Computer Science, we’re all about hands-on learning through project-based courses where students and faculty collaborate with local and national companies to create solutions for their software needs.
INTERNATIONAL INTEGRATION Overstock challenged Neumont students to update their website. The Enterprise Project required the students to integrate recently acquired international online retailers into its existing Overstock brand, website, and data structure. This included testing, debugging, and automation. Students worked primarily in Java, Linux, HTML, and CSS to create a streamlined and fully integrated database and website for the online retailer.
Yes, a company like Dell EMC may use Neumont student projects in their day-to-day operations, which sounds pretty good in a job interview. Trust us. Enterprise Projects are the proving ground where you’ll implement everything you’ve learned and build a portfolio packed with projects for real companies. In addition, these companies sponsor projects throughout the year, help develop our curriculum, and attend Career Services events every quarter.
THE BEST WAY TO LEARN TO CODE IS TO CODE. If you’re going to succeed in the tech industry, you must know how to learn. And, that’s what Neumont’s project-based curriculum teaches you. The project opportunities at Neumont are constantly evolving. Here are just a few of the projects students have completed with Enterprise Partners.

NEUMONT COLLEGE PROJECT:
TOUCHSCREEN MAP Neumont dreamed up an interactive alumni map and hand-picked two all-star students to bring our vision to life. The map allows users to see where Neumont alumni are currently working, who hired them, and their home states. Using Indeed, a search engine for job listings, users can also search for open positions across the United States. The students (now alumni) created this 86” multi-touch panel using Angular 7 for the front-end, C# with ASP.NET Core for framework, and SQL as the back-end database.
ENTERPRISE PARTNER:
REACT GAMES PROJECT:
SUPER DUNGEON BROS Students helped develop the video game Super Dungeon Bros. It’s a cross platform, rock themed, co-op dungeon brawler with a band of mighty rock bros who navigate the medieval fantasy realm of Rökheim. Working with Visual Studio, Unity, Ruby, C#, and Java (to name a few technologies), they developed back-end systems for gameplay, created levels, and implemented new features. The team worked together on the project helping each other along as they were mentored by the React developers.

Neumont students worked with our local NBA team, the Utah Jazz, to create a three-point shooting game. This multi-platform game was made by students in the BSGD program using Unity and C#. Players are able to choose from multiple characters, dodge obstacles, make baskets, and work towards achievements.
