Courses are offered in:
Spring (January to May)
Summer (May to August) - This semester is optional
Fall (August to December)
New cohorts start in fall and spring semesters. All courses are approximately 15 weeks in length.
In addition, MCIT Online students have access to hands-on, career development initiatives. The Executives in Residence (EIR) program connects students with senior-level leaders from some of today’s top tech companies. Executives in residence will lead workshops, mentor students, provide networking opportunities, give students real-world perspectives on industry trends, and more. Students can also partake in Side Projects for Advancement, Refinement and Collaboration (SPARC), a summer competition where students can showcase their skills to potential employers.
Highlighting its commitment to creating a meaningful influence and promoting a sense of belonging, the MCIT Online program aims to reshape the landscape of computer science by incorporating a wide spectrum of perspectives. For instance, MCIT Online draws participants from 44 distinct countries, with women constituting 44% of the student body. The program encompasses individuals embarking on their careers, those progressing, and those transitioning, spanning ages from 21 to 60. Students with diverse educational backgrounds, ranging from finance and economics to architecture and literature, contribute to the program's composition.
