To be admitted to the Master of Information Technology program as a degree-seeking student, you must provide proof of your bachelor’s degree and complete one of two pathways:

  1. Complete three short courses with a 3.0 cumulative grade-point average on a 4.0 scale or better.

  2. Complete the Google IT Support Technical Certificate on Coursera. Already completed this certificate? Starting from June 2025, you'll be able to gain admission.

Once you are accepted and enrolled, pathway courses will form part of the core degree curriculum, which means your progress will be applied to the degree. Learn more about how you can get started.
