How it works

If you’ve completed one or more of the following programs on Coursera, you may have your learning recognized for up to three credits toward this degree, which can help you save up to $1,250 and earn you degree faster based on the number of credits approved upon enrollment.¹

That could add a meaningful financial benefit on top of a program that’s already $56,000 less than the average cost of an M.B.A. in the U.S. at $15,000. With “pay-as-you-go” tuition, you only pay for the courses you take each term.

Interested? After you complete the certificates, Illinois Tech will conduct a transfer credit evaluation for the certificates you completed. You can take these certificates at any time during the program, and the credits will transfer accordingly. Please note that an additional exam may be required for certain certificates.

Between the graduate-level curriculum and advanced skills development, you'll be well-prepared to take on a leadership position in any tech company. Learn more by requesting information.
