Since 1931, DeVry University has been adapting to the changing demands of business. Today, our programs are designed – and regularly updated – with current and future market trends in mind. And in our increasingly digital world, it’s no surprise that technology is a trending area of interest for our students.
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), computer and information technology occupations are projected to create approximately 531,200 new jobs by 2029, with demand coming from an increased need for “cloud computing, the collection and storage of big data and information security.”
To help prepare students to break into this growing field1, DeVry is proud to offer the following new online undergraduate certificate programs:
“These new certificate programs underscore our commitment to offering stackable credentials which reflect market demand and equip students with industry-relevant skills,” explains Shantanu Bose, DeVry University Provost and Chief Academic Officer. “We believe our expanded certificate offerings will continue to differentiate DeVry University as THE place for students seeking to start or pivot into the technology field by learning skills they can take to the workplace now, and build-upon these stackable certificates in the future to continue advancing in their skillset.”
