Online Computer Science Degree

Earn your accelerated degree in computer science online from UND.

100% Online Degree

The entire degree program is fully online. You are never required to come to campus.

Asynchronous Classes

With asynchronous classes, you do not attend class at a set time. If you need to balance work, family, and other commitments, this flexible format allows you to learn anywhere at any time.

Depending on your instructor, you’ll learn online through:

Lesson modules
Streaming video content
Virtual libraries
Posted lectures
Online simulations

There will be times when you interact with your instructor and classmates through online discussion boards, polls, and chat rooms.

Your learning revolves around materials that can be accessed on your own time within a set time frame. However, this is not a self-paced course. You’ll have structure and deadlines.

Synchronous Classes

This program is synchronous and hosts classes in real-time. If you’re the kind of learner that likes active discussion and immediate feedback through live interaction, you’ll enjoy this online course format.

Every class is different, but generally, you’ll log into a virtual classroom at scheduled times to:

Listen to a lecture
Ask questions
Participate in class discussions
Conduct group activities
Participate in video sharing
Have chat conversations
Use interactive whiteboards
Take live polls

You should prepare for your classes by finishing any assigned readings, compiling questions for your instructor, and thinking about how to contribute to the next live class.
