PGCert in Computer and Information Sciences, General

This online graduate certificate covers the basics of information systems through a short sequence of four courses. It is meant for people who want practical technology skills for entry into roles such as computer support, systems administration or help desk work. The topics include network basics, coding, how data is modeled and how databases are designed. Credits earned in the certificate can also count toward the university's master's degree in information technology, giving learners a way to continue studying later without starting over. Because the certificate is taken online and has a short course sequence, it offers a lower-commitment way to test interest in technology work or to gain a credential before deciding on further study. Prospective students can reach an enrollment specialist by submitting an inquiry form, and applicants living abroad are pointed to a separate international form. The next start listed is November 30, 2026.
