Educational Computing
(Certificate)

The College of Saint Rose recognizes the important role technology plays in education and has established the graduate certificate in educational computing to help current and future educators integrate technology into their instructional and professional practice. Educators from all disciplines learn how to use the technology currently available in their schools to be prepared for the future of technology in education.

The Saint Rose Difference
Unlike programs designed to train computer specialists, the goal of this certificate is to provide teachers and non-school based professionals with the knowledge and skills they need to use computer technology in educational settings. Designed to benefit both initially and professionally certified teachers, this flexible, interdepartmental program enables education professionals to update their skills by choosing from among several ability-based options. Small class sizes help students share insights and collaborate on team projects.

Admission Requirements
Currently enrolled graduate students and those who already hold a master's degree may be admitted to the program by filling out a streamlined application.

Course Work
All courses are taught in state-of-the-art technology classrooms with a software library designed specifically for this program. In consultation with their advisors, students complete any 12 credit hours of technology-in-education course work that best complement their educational goals. Courses may be selected from among all of the technology in education offerings.
