Forging Real-World Skills in the Classroom

Wentworth's Information Technology students (BSIT) gain valuable skills in enterprise infrastructure, information management, system analysis and design, networks and security, network administration, web and mobile systems, software development, and project management.

Students also apply these skills directly in the field through two required co-op work semesters beginning their junior year.
