Currently, both the Internet Technology for e-Commerce and Security and Information Assurance programs are available online. In addition, all knowledge areas are offered as independent advanced certificate programs with the addition of IT 600 Overview of Computer Networks & Internet Technology and an IT elective.

A student who wishes to continue on in the M.S. in IT after completing one of the advanced certificate programs will be able to do so, provided all other admission requirements are satisfied. An additional course beyond those required for both the certificate and the degree is required.
