Turn your aptitude for computers into a lucrative profession.

With a computer science certificate, you’ll learn how to efficiently communicate and store digital information. This includes intermediate programming, databases, web development, and theory. Courses will strengthen your technical problem solving skills, improve and test your coding techniques, and teach you how to develop software applications. So you’ll graduate prepared to provide sought-after technical support in a variety of fields.

You’ll also leave here with the skills to communicate effectively, articulate your career preparation confidently and collaborate with others meaningfully. And in all things, we’ll help you work toward becoming a capable and trusted disciple of Jesus Christ. So whatever you do, you’ll be prepared to be the best you possible.
ARE YOU INTERESTED IN AN ASSOCIATE OF SCIENCE (AS) DEGREE?

If your goal is to get a transferable, skills-based degree, you’re in the right place. Any certificate can be combined with general education courses to create your AS degree.

Seeking to expand your job-related skills to broaden career options? Strengthen your resume by including two certificates in your degree. Or, discover new interests by choosing one certificate and exploring elective credits. Are you a Pathway student interested in attending Ensign College? Those earned credits can be transferred to your AS degree as electives.

Whichever option you choose, you’ll graduate with the technical, critical thinking and interpersonal skills that employers look for, so you can secure a career and excel.

Interested in continuing your education after you graduate? No problem. Your regionally-accredited AS degree, which includes the credits from your selected certificate(s), can be transferred to a 4-year institution.

DON'T FORGET TO PLAN YOUR COURSES

Have you laid out your course sequencing yet? It’s essential that you meet with your success advisor first thing to ensure that you stay on track.

Set yourself up for success by mapping out your required courses from the beginning.

You can reach your success advisor through the Student Success Center at studentsuccesscenter@ensign.edu or 801-524-8151.
