Program details
Overview
This Bachelor of Science in Information Technology is a four-year, on-campus program built around a mandatory internship. Coursework covers computing platforms, operating systems, and networking; information security and applied cryptography; database design, querying, and administration; and responsive web technologies, extending into cloud systems, cybersecurity strategy, and systems integration. Core courses include Computer Systems and Platforms, Web Design, Networking and Advanced Networking, Information Security and Advanced Cybersecurity, and Database Systems and Database Administration, culminating in a senior project capstone tied to the work-experience placement. The program pairs technical instruction with a professional-readiness focus, preparing graduates for roles such as network administrator, systems analyst, cybersecurity specialist, database administrator, web developer, or IT consultant. Because the internship is mandatory, international students must separately meet Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada eligibility requirements and obtain a co-op work permit before their placement begins. The program suits students who want a technically grounded IT credential combined with supervised, hands-on work experience rather than a purely theoretical computing degree.
Requirements
Minimum GPA:60.00 / %
Admission Requirements: Admission follows Concordia's general Bachelor of Science pattern: English Language Arts 30-1, Mathematics 30-1 or Mathematics 30-2, two Group C science subjects, and one further subject from Group A, B, C or D, with a minimum overall admission average of 60% (international applicants meet the equivalent secondary pattern at the same average). The university-wide English Language Requirement applies: three full years of English-medium schooling in Canada, or IELTS Academic 6.0 with no band below 5.5, TOEFL iBT 80 (PBT 550), MELAB 80, PTE Academic 54, or CAEL 60 overall (no subtest below 50, 60 in Writing). The program carries a mandatory internship, so international students must independently meet IRCC work-permit eligibility and are advised to apply for a co-op work permit at least six months before the internship begins.
Application Details
Application Deadline:Concordia University of Edmonton's Fall 2027 application cycle is confirmed open as of October 1, 2026, though its specific deadline is not yet separately published; the university's current 2026-2027 academic calendar lists undergraduate deadlines of June 30 for Fall, November 1 for Winter, and March 1 for Spring/Summer, all falling under the Fall 2026-Summer 2027 academic year. International undergraduate deadlines mirror the Fall date (June 30) and close earlier for Winter (October 1), with Spring/Summer generally unavailable to international students. Graduate programmes set their own per-program deadlines rather than a single institutional date. Applications for both domestic and international undergraduate students go directly through Concordia, and admission is not described as rolling, though 'Bounce Back' late applications are accepted close to term start. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
