Certificate in Computing
The Certificate in Computing provides students with an opportunity to develop their computing literacy to equip them with the fundamentals of programming and software development, which can be applied to other areas of study or work. This program is not intended to prepare students for careers in software development, but to give professionals (and future professionals) in many fields the skills to apply computing to their activities, increasing their productivity.
The major average in the Certificate in Computing includes the grades earned in:
- All courses eligible to be used in the program.
To receive a Certificate in Computing, students must complete at least two-thirds of the following coursework (to the nearest highest multiple of 3 credit units) from the University of Saskatchewan.
- Minimum credit units required in the program.
See Residency for additional details.
For 2026-27, the current requirements can be found in the university catalog entry.
Note: For 2027-28, the course requirements for the certificate in computing will be changing. The main changes are that the 3cu MATH/STAT requirement will be replaced with a requirement to take MATH 163, and that the list of classes that may be used to satisfy the requirement of 3cu of 300- or 400-level classes will be broadened.
