Loyola University Chicago's Mundelein College offers computer science certificates for experienced programmers and computer novices.
All courses carry college credit.
For experienced programmers, the certificate program can be completed in 12 months exclusively at the Water Tower Campus. Each of the certificates consists of a total of five courses. There are three foundation courses and two electives that allow for specialization. Exclusive enrollment at the Water Tower campus will allow students to complete the certificate in 12 months. Students who find the other campuses convenient can also complete the requirements rapidly by combining classroom-based and online courses, or by enrolling in two courses in the same semester.
