Sure, rogue memorization has its place in education. Just not here. We lean toward a more hands-on approach: why just learn about what's going on in the industry when you can actually do it? Using that philosophy, here's a breakdown of how students at Neumont spend their time:
PROJECT EXPERIENCE TIMELINE
FOUNDATIONAL PROJECTS
These projects are all about covering the basics. You've got to walk before you can run and these hypothetical applications make sure our student's get off to the right start.
INTERNAL PROJECTS
Beyond the realm of hypothetical, student's start cranking away on projects for Neumont that can actually be implemented by the university.
ENTERPRISE PROJECTS
The program that sets Neumont apart: real projects for real companies. When students get to this point they'll spend half their day creating projects for the likes of IBM and eBay. This type of experience also looks stellar in a digital portfolio. When completed, the sponsor will take delivery of your final project and implement it internally.
WHERE OUR ENTERPRISE PARTNERS FIT IN
At the beginning of each assignment, project sponsors from partnering companies visit the campus to introduce the project requirements. Throughout the project these sponsors oversee the process and provide feedback. Students, this is the time to show-off your mad coding skills, work ethic and charming personality: the project sponsors don't just influence your grade; they may be your future employer.
