Certificates

Each of our graduate certificate programs provides advanced coursework in an area of specialization in the computing field. Requiring completion of a small, curated set of courses centered around a focused topic, a certificate offers the opportunity to explore computing topics that align with your computing-related interests.

Computer Science Instruction

The graduate certificate in Computer Science Instruction provides a pathway for in-service teachers to quickly develop the necessary knowledge and skills to teach computer science at the secondary level. Teachers will gain an understanding of the “big ideas” in computer science and how to apply those concepts as part of a creative, problem-solving process. In addition, teachers will be equipped with pedagogical strategies and a portfolio of instructional resources for teaching computer science. The curriculum is aligned with the K12 CS framework and prepares teachers for the Praxis Computer Science Subject Test, used in several states for teacher certification.
