Specialty Overview (Class Calendar)
The concept of specialization allows students to break down the huge curriculum
into smaller pieces, while integrating those skills at a team level. Additionally,
the specialty areas are not only functional areas to keep a team alive, but can
be used as the starting points for infrastructure of building a community.
