That's pretty true for the BS Cybersecurity and the BS Analytics at PUG, when the concentrations are optional. You're essentially choosing to take e.g. Game Development instead of electives in American History. But it's less true of the BSIT, where you're required to take one of the concentrations -- that's more like a concentration in a traditional bachelor's program.
Thanks, I didn’t realize that! I suppose it’s a fine choice to have some fun with the degree then. It’s still a strange combination.

It used to be a short time ago, that the W3 PHP cert brought in 6 courses which included the entire Software Development concentration.

That's an easy cert to get, which is an open-book test. They give you two tries and only takes 10-20hrs to study for. Cost $95
